Do hospitals just like know about all snakebites or is it part of like a special doctor training or do they just have like a snake expert doctor on staff. Do they have all the anti-venoms readily available or do you need to go to a special snake hospital.

Am doctor in Australia. All emergency department doctors are trained to manage snakebite, and we have anti venom available in the Emergency Department for all of the snakes you might encounter in our local area (two different anti venoms). Never try to catch or even identify the snake – it only puts you in more danger, and it doesn’t make a difference to your treatment.
