There is a scarcity of research that informs Interface Health Service (IHS) development. This research applied a mixed methods approach to profile older emergency department patients and patterns of health service use and to explore their ED experiences in public hospital EDs in South-East Queensland. IHS was under-utilised by older people with complex co-morbidities. Lack of communication and need identification were factors that undermined the effectiveness of IHS in reaching this cohort which highlighted a need for change.

Abstract:
AbstractThe emergency department of any institution is an entry point for a significant number of patients to any health care organization. The department caters to various trauma and medical emergencies in both adults and in children round the clock and is adequately staffed with emergency physicians, and nursing to handle such emergencies at all times and days. The department also oversees operations of the prehospital emergency medical services (ambulance) and coordinates their services.The emergency department (ED) is considered particularly high risk for adverse events (AE): 60% of ED patients experienced Medication Error (Patanwala et al., Ann Emerg Med 55:522–526, 2010). From a systematically review about AE related to ED, appears that the prevalence of AE among hospitalized patients ranging from 2.9% to 16.6%, with 36.9% to 51% of events considered preventable (Stang et al., PLoS One 8:e74214, 2013).Maintaining quality and developing error-free systems have been the focus of engineering over the last few decades.Consider the degree of variability of every individual human being compared to machine and also wisdoms from engineering field, for error-free system that guarantees good quality assistance should be defined a program reasonably simple, locally relevant, easily implementable, not be resource intense and have tangible outcomes which can be measured.

Abstract:
Patients with serious illness and their families go to the emergency department (ED) for acute crises with symptom management, caregiver distress, or for management of end-of-life issues. Unmet palliative care needs in the ED include clarification of advance directives, goals-of-care discussions, symptom management, and engaging with families and patients who may die in the ED. Many factors in the emergency department can influence the occurrence and success of these conversations, including provider comfort in having these conversations, availability of social work and palliative care resources, as well as the physical environment of the ED. Social workers within the context of the emergency department are uniquely positioned to build rapport and have advance care planning discussions with seriously ill patients who may also experience mental illness, substance abuse, and homelessness, and may be unlikely to access care in outpatient settings. For our most vulnerable patients, the ability of a social worker to build rapport across multiple ED visits and to outreach community partners, can improve patient autonomy and inform future treatment decisions. Both ED and palliative social workers can improve the care that seriously ill patients receive in the ED by identifying unmet palliative care needs and providing primary and specialist palliative care interventions.

Abstract:
Seventy per cent of patients who present to the ED have pain as their main complaint—and most of the time as a sign of injury or inflammation. Therefore, early assessment by scoring at the point of triage and offering the appropriate analgesia are the first steps towards the management of such patients. The College of Emergency Medicine guidelines suggest that at least 98% of patients in severe pain (pain score of 7–10) should be offered appropriate analgesia within 60min of arrival, or triage, whichever is earlier. In 90% of these patients, the status of pain should be re-evaluated within 60min of receiving the first dose of the analgesic. Despite this clear-cut standard and the availability of a wide variety of analgesics, achieving such a target remains, occasionally, elusive. It must also be realized that a positive experience for the patient largely depends on relief of pain as early as possible. Consequently, one of the primary areas for a new FY1 to focus on is the pain management. Remember it is simple and straightforward in most circumstances. GA may be required in the ED for various clinical indications, for example, cardioversion, facial trauma or burns, and acute respiratory failure (such as in asthma). In an emergency situation it may be a challenging procedure even for an experienced anaesthetist and could be dangerous for the patients. An FY1/2 will never be expected to perform this, but it is important to know when to call for help when the situation demands. Local anaesthesia is widely used in the ED, and is one of the skills foundation trainees learn in the early days. It is comparatively safe if the doctor is aware of how to perform the procedure and the upper limit of the dose for a particular patient. Finally, conscious sedation is also widely used in the ED for reducing fractures and/or dislocations and minor operations. However, it carries the same risks as GA and should be carried out by a doctor who is trained in the procedure as well as in resuscitation. A risk assessment should be performed as a patient with high risks (previous cardiac or respiratory diseases) must be sedated with extreme caution.

Abstract:
In complex systems, such as healthcare, patient satisfaction is identified as the patient experience of care and has been referred to as the “indispensable outcome.” The main goals of ED practitioners are the patient satisfaction along with maintaining optimal outcomes. Patient satisfaction has become a very important outcome measure when assessing healthcare systems performance. Nevertheless, it is a complex confusing concept. Some providers suggest several activities in order to enhance the satisfaction without being sure if these actions really improve satisfaction or no. Also, patient satisfaction enhancement activities should not conflict with cost efficacy. Several factors fall under patient satisfaction. Interviews with physicians prove that patients have specific expectations during a clinical encounter; being aware of these expectations, physicians can fulfill patient satisfaction. The goal of this chapter is to determine the contribution and effect of these factors in influencing patient satisfaction.

Abstract:
Emergency telepsychiatry is the evaluation and treatment of patients experiencing mental health crises using audio/video communications. Patients in hospital emergency departments (EDs) often experience long waits, delayed treatment, and uncomfortable conditions when in-person psychiatric care is not readily available; prolonged lengths of stay in the ED also increase hospital costs. Telepsychiatry can make psychiatric care more accessible and timely by linking mental health specialists in various locations to patients in EDs. Initial data indicate that the financial investment in emergency telepsychiatry is more than offset by savings in ED and hospital costs. Rapid availability of telepsychiatric consultation also improves the quality of care in EDs and leads to more appropriate and timely dispositions of patients.

Abstract:
Chronic abdominal pain is a very common condition all over the world. Although not expected to present emergently, acute exacerbations of chronic pain or the slightest change that worsens the patient's condition (e.g, acute-onset diarrhea, vomiting, or loss of appetite) will trigger admissions to ED. Functional bowel diseases include irritable bowel syndrome (IBS, a.k.a. spastic colon), functional bloating, functional constipation, functional diarrhea, and unspecified functional bowel disorders. Epidemiologic, pathophysiologic and therapeutic studies of functional bowel diseases, employed the Rome Criteria with universal validity. Patients with malignancy can experience different types of cancer-related pain at any time during the disease process, perceived by the organs or systems involved.

Abstract:
One shared feature between eating disorders and anxiety-based disorders is the functional relationship between fears and associated avoidance and safety behaviors. Patients with eating disorders are individuals; thus, they will experience different symptoms. The clinician’s task is to understand those symptoms and plan treatment accordingly. That understanding is much easier when clinicians’ focus their assessment on both the short- and long-term functions that eating disorder behaviors serve. Identifying those functions allows clinicians to engage their patients and their family in making changes, because patients and families will understand that their existing responses are not working and are worsening the ED symptoms.

Emergency Department (ED) is a complex care delivery environment in a hospital that provides time sensitive urgent and lifesaving care [1]. Emergency medicine is an unscheduled practice and therefore providers experience extreme fluctuations in their workload. ED crowding is a major concern that affects the efficacy of the ED workflow, which often is challenged by long wait times, overuse of observation units, patients either leaving without being seen by a provider and non-availability of inpatient beds to accommodate patients after diagnosis [2].
