Rapid assessment in the ED- with Pete Chessum

Hey everyone two podcasts in a week- as you can see we are a regular as ever! This one we have been promising you for ages and it goes very nicely with Petes Blog which you can find here.

The landscape of ED's have changed so much on the last 5-10 years and this development of early senior clinical decision making as close to the front door as possible is still under review. Have we overtaken the role of triage nurses and amalgamated into one? Have we changed the jobs of ED clinicians? Join Pete and I to chat about this.

Pete mentions about the ECHO study and here is the link

Here are some other options for reading around RAT but as we said there isn't actually much out there...

Hope you enjoy and any comments get in touch, also if anyone has great experience of RAT or wants to get some research out there... Pete is your man! 

Thanks all
