The Service commencement date and Service commencement time is the earlier of the time the patient is seen by the doctor or the nurse. Bunbury Hospital and Peel Health Campus follow the same definition as per metropolitan sites, i.e. The Service commencement date and Service commencement time is the time the patient is seen by the doctor.
