That is how our NHS works, if someone needs treatment or to be assessed quickly it is done with a Doctors nod.
I cannot think of that many other instances where a baby actually being born could not be classed as an emergency,if only from the safety aspect of the Child and it's Mother but also as to the hygiene elements too.
