This is a concise, user-friendly orientation guide and reference
for new and seasoned nurses, paramedics, preceptors, educators,
management teams, and anyone else in triage situations. It features
a consistent format with pithy information guidelines covering key
processes and practices Triage Nurses use daily. Chapters address
core elements of triage such as tips for success for triage
orientees and triage preceptors, point-of-entry, evaluation
processes, understanding a variety of acuity scales, "red-flag"
diagnoses and how to handle them, coordination and communication
with other health care team members, documentation guidelines, and
care considerations for special populations. Practical information
on all areas of triage includes coverage of emergency department
and urgent care triage. The guide addresses care considerations for
such specialized populations as geriatric, paediatric, and
individuals with disabilities. Included are adult teaching and
learning principles, legal concerns, customer service tips,
compassion fatigue, core measures, and case studies. The guide
covers fostering critical thinking skills, electronic medical
record, provider in triage, trauma, patient and staff safety, and
much more. Information is organized in brief, bulleted "bites" for
knowledge at a glance. This book was originally published under the
Fast Facts series by Springer Publishing Company.
