What is the first aid for heart attack?
The first aid treatment for a heart attack is fairly limited. We can reassure the patient. As well as this, we can help the patient take any prescribed medication (i.e. GTN spray). The best thing we can do is to phone for an ambulance and to ensure prompt medical treatment is delivered to the patient. This is the best treatment first aiders can provide.

What means the medical screening of patients to determine their relative priority of need for treatment?
The term "triage" refers to the process for prioritizing patient treatment when there are limited treatment personnel and facilities (as in a major accident or disaster). Patients are assigned a degree of urgency to decide which are treated first. In some cases, triage means that some critically ill or injured may be given only palliative care because their survival chance is minimal even with the most immediate and aggressive treatment available.
Is a doctor chosen by the patient who is the first doctor the patient sees responsible for making referrals for further treatment by a specialist or for hospitalization?
If the doctor believes treatment by a specialist or hospitalization is necessary, yes, he is responsible for making those recommendations to the patient. The patient is ultimately the one who will either accept or reject those recommendations, and could seek a second opinion from another doctor if he or she chooses. If the patient accepts the advice of the first doctor, the doctor will make the referrals.
