The workload on emergency (ER) departments continues to grow at a tremendous rate. In this session, we will identify ways to manage an increased caseload while maintaining the quality of care. We will specifically look at the delegation of work and roles within the practice, collaboration with other ER practices, and improved processes for better case management. Finally, I will share best practices from my experience and some lessons learned from things I have tried.
