    Why not just say emergency room rather than an acronym nobody in the general population uses? There was a whole tv show about this for like 25 years.

      Well no reason other than that’s what it’s called here. Most people where I live would know what I’m talking about. I can’t be responsible for all people who don’t understand me. Im going to use the language that is commonly used where I live aren’t I? It’s not a room it’s a department.
