With real-life examples, the chapters detail a multitude of clinical presentations and include procedures and protocols that the triage nurse implements in daily practice. This newly revised and updated edition covers how to build confidence in the triage role, accurately assess patient presentations, reduce personnel and hospital liability, increase patient and staff satisfaction, and, ultimately, deliver quality patient care that supports best outcomes.5 New Chapters in the Second Edition:Active Shooter/Active ViolenceEmergency Management for When Disaster StrikesTriage CompetencyPain ManagementEndocrine EmergenciesKey Features:Covers essential clinical information in an easy-to-read formatFocuses on processes, patient and staff safety, legalities, documentation, and critical thinking at triageAddresses specific patient populations including pediatric, older adult, human trafficking, military personnel, and moreOffers guidance from seasoned emergency department nurses and triage educators
