Leading in Times of War When turning on the television‚ reading an article‚ or listening to the radio‚ what mostly is being said is something good or bad of what a leader has done. Every leader has their good side and their bad. Everyone always looks for the intentions that a leader can give out. Presidents will explain what they would do if war was to happen.

problems precipitated the creation of the triage system implemented by Kathryn Angell in an effort to deliver improved medical care. The main problem was a lack of coordination in service delivery. This lack of coordination caused excessive wait times on the order of anywhere from 23 to 40 minutes to see a nurse‚ 40 to 50 minutes to see a doctor‚ and as long as 55 minutes to get a prescription filled.
