Green tags are used for which group of patients?

Green tags are designated for patients classified as "walking wounded." In triage systems used during mass casualty incidents, patients are sorted based on the severity of their injuries and the urgency of their need for medical attention. Those with green tags are generally considered to have minor injuries that do not require immediate intervention. They are able to walk and are deemed stable enough to wait until more critical patients have been treated. This classification helps ensure that limited medical resources are allocated efficiently to those who need urgent care first, such as patients with life-threatening conditions or severe injuries, which is why those in critical condition, or requiring immediate medical attention, would not receive green tags.
