Emergency Room Protocols

Emergency room protocols are standardized procedures designed to ensure patients receive timely and effective care. Upon arrival, patients are assessed quickly based on the severity of their condition through a process called triage. Life-threatening cases are prioritized. Medical staff gather information about symptoms, medical history, and perform necessary tests. Treatments are administered as needed, and patients are monitored continuously. Communication with patients about their condition and care plan is crucial. Once stabilized, patients may be discharged, admitted to the hospital, or referred to specialists for further care, ensuring all receive appropriate treatment based on their needs.
