    MTS
    There are 53 Emergency Triage charts which are presentation, not diagnosis based. Charts are based on what the patient says is happening, not what may be the cause.

    Important Information

    The Manchester Triage System (MTS) was developed solely for registered Health Care Professionals (HCPs) due to the clinical skills and knowledge, required to assess needs and plan care, when performing a triage assessment. MTG will not support organisations allowing the use of MTS by staff who are non-HCPs (staff below Band 5 UK or international equivalent). In any medical negligence proceedings where the court requests evidence, MTG will send a letter to this effect.
