Something weird was happening to my eye the other night and I didn’t know whether to go to Emergency or not. So I called 811 and was connected right away with a Registered Nurse who did a great job with ‘triage’, calmly going through a Q&A. Conclusion: Go to Emerg. I’m glad I did.

811 is kind of great.
