Need your OR knowledge.....patient from clinic or other facility to OR???

I'm looking for feedback in order to improve our process for add on urgent/emergent surgical cases to an already busy OR schedule. Specifically, if a patient comes from a MD office in the clinic, urgent care, or an outside facility (MD office, EMTC, hospital, etc) where do your surgical patients go????
-Straight to OR
-Straight to the floor
-EMTC/ER and then to either OR if ready or inpt floor
-During daytime and staffed hours the SSC/Ambulatory unit
-Any other tricks of the trade????

Thank you so much in advance and any advice, input, or sites for reference appreciated
