Medical_interaction_scenario [agentive]
A Patient interacts with one or more Medics (doctors, nurses, and/or EMTs with a responsibility for the Patient's health) so that the Medics can determine the health status of the Patient and maintain or restore the Patient's health as necessary.
Usually, the Patient has an Affliction, a medical problem that motivates or necessitates their coming into the care of a Medic. At a minimum, the Patient has a single interaction with a Medic, but usually the Patient has a relationship with the Medic or group of medical professionals who either have responsibility for helping them with their specific Affliction or for their health in general. Medical interactions normally take place at a Medical_center (a hospital or doctor's office), but in cases where the Patient suffers a sudden catastrophic Affliction, the Patient may be taken into the care of EMTs, who act as their Medic until reaching a medical center.
In some cases, the Body_system that has a problem is mentioned in place of the Affliction.
