"Triage at the door" was started at our local ER. Nurse-led.

It lasted about 6 months, then went back to admin staff booking you in, and then being apparently ignored for hours no matter what the situation. Unless you keeled-over in the waiting room. But you had to keel over in the right place as the admin were hidden behind tall desks and glass.

Not so if you arrived by ambulance, so soon there was huge demand for ambulances and paramedics.
