All Consultants play a key role in actively reviewing all patients on arrival, supporting rapid diagnostics and treatment, as well as streaming and redirection to the most appropriate services. We aim to cover both walk-in patients and ambulance handover with a senior decision maker. This ensures maximal utilisation of partners in the urgent care network, Hospital Avoidance Teams and GP out of hours services. There is a collaborative approach in delivery of emergency care across acute and community settings.
