Ramage from One of the ER attending.
02:33
I am comfortable with the patient going local based on the EMS assessment.

If Aberdeen is able to receive, I would proceed there.

If Aberdeen is not able to receive the patient, we can proceed to Bayview.

But again, I am comfortable with transport local based on the EMS assessments.
