LenMed Kathu - Triage at ER non existent - long waiting for basic lifesaving assistance

Good day, I headed to Kathu LenMed Private hospital with my daughter on 3 September 2024. Upon arrival at the ER - we waited more than 2hours, even though she was struggling to breath and her chest was wheezing. No triage was done - had to wait in line and be patient. What is expected to get quicker response and medical care when on the displayed triage list - the reaction time should be within 15min? Who should do the triage?

Thanks. Not holding my breath since internal matters have not yet resulted in any feedback 1 month on - only replies from an Intern that it is getting attention, but looking forward to how you prove me wrong in terms of feedback and diligence.
