[talk-au] Are Health Centres, hospitals

[Ewen Hill]

We also have the grey area of Bush Nursing Centres that are clearly not
hospitals but are the best place to head to in an emergency and may be the
difference when you are looking at two equal sized communities. The ten
staff sounds arbitrary.

Shouldn't the difference be based on the capability of the premises to
resuscitate, handle compound fractures and prolong life until the patient
can be moved to a more appropriate facility rather than a "must have ten
medical staff"?  Further more, should it be defined as "an official
hospital or the first place of medical support in a rural setting"?
