This is an educational event for Nurse Practitioners and AHPs who work independently in a Primary Care setting and admit patients for acute hospital admission. It explores the concept of ‘ambulatory care’ and looks at alternatives to in-patient admission at the local trusts.
Real life cases are used to generate discussion and learning on how to manage clinical risk in the community and use timely review as a tool. There are tips on phoning for admission and opportunities for telephone simulation.
This course will focus on the following topics:
- Learn about alternatives to acute hospital admissions and using ambulatory clinics
