EMERGENCY and TRAUMA CARE
please also use the set text EMERGENCY and TRAUMA CARE by curtis and Ramsden. Here is the assissgnment: The Emergenc
Department.
Please reflect upon and respond to the following
1. Every Patients presentation to the emergency department is extremely
varied- from howthey arrived there, the severity oftheir presentation, to howtheir own cultural perspective may influence theirvision of
their health. Many otherfactors will also contribute to howthey interpret theirtreatment and how emergency staff respond to
them.
Emergency nursing is viewed as being very clinically and medically focused, however creating a rapport with patients is still vital
for nurses to provide optimum care and achieve desired health outcomes.
Consider these 2 different presentations and discuss the types of
nursing approaches which would be used in conjunction with the clinical application of nursing to facilitate a positive experience in the
emergency department.

Please note, we do
not want the treatment/procedures forthese patients but other examples of nursing management.
