Key Takeaways

  • Stabilize cardiac distress, asthma flare, collapse in clinic, and serious infection in those first critical minutes before referral.
  • Keep high-risk patients [diabetic, hypertensive, CKD, anxious, elderly] stable in the community so they do not bounce back to ER every week.
  • Protect your practice. Learn documentation discipline, verbal consent, safe prescribing, and how to handle angry attendants without risking legal fallout.
  • Lead like a family physician. Coordinate referrals, guide families, and build a clinic culture based on clarity, ethics and follow up.
