Podcasts about emergency departments

A familiar face in Chatham-Kent is joining the team at the local hospital's Emergency Department, Blenheim's 42nd annual Cherry-fest is underway, and you won't have to pay to get into Ontario Parks tomorrow.

Nearly one-quarter of emergency department visits among patients 60-and-older nationally resulted in a hospital stay. A Rutland man, worried about his widowed father, made an emergency hospital go-bag for his dad, and experts say more of us should have them. Plus, budget cuts have prompted layoffs at the Vermont Foodbank, areas of Montreal are recovering from flooding, and people who work with refugees and asylum seekers in Vermont are struggling to keep up with recent changes to federal immigration laws.

July is the most exciting time of the year in the hospital - especially in the Emergency Department, when all of the new interns show up!

Disparities in Treatment and Referral After an Opioid Overdose Among Emergency Department Patients  JAMA Network Open This cohort study of 1,683 patients assessed if there are racial and ethnic disparities in treatment referral rates among patients in the emergency department (ED) with opioid overdose.  It found a statistically significant difference in the proportion of Black patients who received an outpatient treatment referral (5.7%) compared with White patients (9.6%). These findings suggest that Black patients presenting to the ED with opioid overdose may be less likely to receive outpatient treatment referrals, underscoring the need for targeted intervention and enhanced referral processes.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Visiting the emergency department with a sick or injured child can overwhelm parents due to long wait times and stress. Understanding what to expect can help. This episode explores when to go to children's hospital emergency departments in Australia and what to expect upon arrival. - Hasta veya yaralı bir çocukla acil servise gitmek, uzun bekleme süreleri ve stres nedeniyle ebeveynleri bunaltabilir.

A CDC study shows that 1 in 10 Americans gets a tick bite every year on average. This year, the CDC reported that Emergency room visits from Tick bites are at the highest levels since 2019. The CDC has recorded just under 450 Emergency Department visits in the US so far this year, with 250 of those in the Southeast. With that new info as a backdrop we're revisiting this interview Dr. Greg did earlier this year with UK extension entomologist Jonathan Larson.

Colton gets real about the rising anxiety over world events, nurse draft rumors, and why everyone on TikTok is spiraling (again). He breaks down the actual history of nurses in the military, shares his own COVID-era trauma, and offers a much-needed reality check: you're probably not getting drafted, but you are overdue for a screen break. With equal parts sass and sincerity, this episode is your reminder to log off, breathe, and take care of the only thing you can control—yourself.>>Nurses and the Medical Draft: What Would Really Happen?Jump Ahead to Listen:[00:02:06] Hard times throughout history. [00:04:02] Managing anxiety in a chaotic world. [00:08:13] Nurses and the draft. [00:09:36] Military nursing and trauma. [00:12:58] Nurses and potential draft concerns. [00:17:44] Honoring military nurses' service.Connect with Colton on social media: Instagram: @coltonalanlord, @nursedaddies TikTok: @nursedaddiesFor more information, full transcript and videos visit Nurse.org/podcastJoin our newsletter at nurse.org/joinInstagram: @nurse_orgTikTok: @nurse.orgFacebook: @nurse.orgYouTube: Nurse.org

The Minister for Auckland's keeping positive despite a mixed annual State of the City report. The third annual report shows the city rates strongly in sustainability, resilience, and culture, but is falling when it comes to prosperity, skills, and innovation development. Minister Simeon Brown told Heather du Plessis-Allan Auckland's at a good turning point. He says it will be a great year with the City Rail Link opening and the international convention centre bringing opportunities. Brown says they're also addressing inherited challenges, with crime coming down. He's also assuring that health workers and the government are working to ease hospital pressure, amid reports some Auckland ambulances were redirected from EDs. RNZ reports delays handing patients over to Auckland City and Middlemore Hospitals yesterday afternoon, with some assessed by phone or diverted to non-hospital clinics. Brown told du Plessis Allan patients with less severe symptoms are sent to after hours urgent care from time to time. He says the reality is winter is a challenging time for the system, but they're continuing to focus on front line resources to make sure patients receive timely and quality care.

Emergency physicians Resa E. Lewiss and Courtney M. Smalley discuss their article, "Why point-of-care ultrasound belongs in emergency department triage." Amid the crisis of overcrowded waiting rooms and long wait times, they argue for the immediate integration of a powerful, underutilized tool: point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). Resa and Courtney use compelling clinical examples, like identifying a collapsed lung or a ruptured ectopic pregnancy in under two minutes, to show how POCUS can dramatically improve risk stratification and save lives before a patient even leaves the triage area. They counter potential objections by explaining that emergency physicians are already highly trained in POCUS, the technology fits existing workflows, and it is a billable procedure that can generate revenue. The conversation serves as a direct call to action for hospital leaders to redesign triage spaces and protocols, making POCUS a standard of care to ensure the sickest patients are identified and treated without delay.

It's still a delight of an episode to listen to.* * *This episode is just a lovely chat and ramble with the spouse of one of my favorite people. Sebastian Polhill digs in with me about some of the subjects I could talk for ages about: world history, Roman history, development of society and language, and most important, food. Grab a snack and your favored beverage, y'all. You're going to be peckish by the end of this episode!* * *More about Sebastian:Sebastian was born and raised in a single-parent family - Mum and 3 brothers. After doing reasonably well at school and then university he joined the British Army as an Education Officer, reaching the rank of Major over a 17 year career. This was followed by his second career as a High School Teacher of Mathematics, teaching at a variety of schools in both the UK and the USA.  He also took a 4-year sabbatical in the middle of this time to work in the construction industry as everything from labourer to site manager while he took a second bachelor's degree in Construction Management. Sebastian moved to the USA in order to marry his girlfriend of three years (refers to their relationship, not his girlfriend's age!) four-and-a-half years ago, following a two-year ordeal with the US Immigration Services, during which he was deported back to the UK twice!  He's now working in his retirement gig, and living very happily back in the UK with his wife, Lynn, and her son, Brody.

Wellington Hospital is trialling cutting maternity and gynaecology beds to ease ED pressure. Staff have been told maternity overflow space will be re-purposed as 12 more Emergency Department places. NZ College of Midwives Chief Executive Alison Eddy says staff in Wellington have reported the current maternity facility is over 100 percent occupancy. "There might be spare beds today, but on a regular basis they're over capacity. And I think the other really important thing to bear in mind is that maternity is like the ED of the maternity service... it can have unpredictable demand."

Professor Lisa Bortolotti is a philosopher at the University of Birmingham, who has been working on a fascinating interdisciplinary project looking at what happens when young people experiencing mental health difficulties talk to clinicians about those difficulties. The project has involved closely examining hours of audio and video material of these encounters, as well as talking to the young people themselves, in the hope of gaining insights which can help clinicians improve their practice. Emerging from the work has been a focus on agency and the agential stance. We discuss what that means and why it's important, drawing on some examples from the project.Links to further reading:Agency project page on the McPin Foundation website: https://mcpin.org/project/agency/ (has a lot of open access resources)Three relevant open access papers:L Bortolotti (2025).

The union representing midwives says Wellington Hospital cutting beds from its gynaecology and maternity wards in a trial aimed at making more room for patients from the overcrowded Emergency Department is a bad move. Midwifery Representation and Advisory Service's Caroline Conroy spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.

A leaked memo shows Wellington Hospital is cutting beds from its gynaecology and maternity wards in a trial aimed at making room for patients from the over-crowded Emergency Department. Ruth Hill reports.

In today's episode, the union representing midwives says Wellington Hospital cutting beds from its gynaecology and maternity wards in a trial aimed at making more room for patients from the overcrowded Emergency Department is a bad move, Health NZ says gynaecology has 12 "resourced" (staffed) beds, with capacity to flex to 14, and 26 resourced maternity beds, with the ability to flex to 37 beds (11 unresourced) in response, the Finance Minister says several thousand more families will benefit from the changes to FamilyBoost, monitoring potential dangers, such as intruders or eavesdroppers, is the focus of the country's new space squadron, and it has been a huge weekend of music in the United Kingdom - with Black Sabbath performing a farewell show in Birmingham, and Oasis back on stage together to kick off their high-anticipated reunion tour in Cardiff in Wales.

Health NZ has said gynaecology had 12 "resourced" (staffed) beds, with capacity to flex to 14, and 26 resourced maternity beds, with the ability to flex to 37 beds (11 unresourced) in response to Wellington Hospital's trial aimed at making more room for patients from the overcrowded Emergency Department.

Welcome back to Papers of the Month! Three more papers to both inform and challenge our practice across the spectrum of emergency care. First up we look at a systematic review and meta-analysis on noradrenaline vs adrenaline for our medical post-ROSC patients; what evidence exists out there and should we all be delivering noradrenaline as our first line treatment for those with shock? Next up a paper to really challenge the treatment algorithm for status epilepticus in paediatrics, with an RCT of midazolam and ketamine versus midazolam alone. There are some huge differences here in the form of termination rates and some great discussion to be had around the specifics of the paper and how that might translate into future practice. Finally we look at a paper assessing the impact of i.m. versus i.v. metoclopramide for migraines and acute severe headaches. The paper looks at the impact of length of stay within the Emergency Department and also the efficacy of the treatment. Once again we'd love to hear any thoughts or feedback either on the website or via X @TheResusRoom! Simon & Rob

The Government's plan for tougher sentences for people who don't think twice about assaulting first responders and corrections officers is great. But I think there are some other people who should be included. Doctors and nurses. These are the people who, it seems, can be at just as much risk of being attacked. It's brilliant that the Government has got the ambulance paramedics in their thinking. But the threat doesn't necessarily go away once they've dropped someone off in the emergency department. In fact, it could be argued that, at times, hospital staff are at more risk than prison officers. Because, in prisons, there are all sorts of precautions and measures in place to minimise the risk of violence. There's none of that in hospitals, though. Not that I see the new law being a solution to this problem we have, where some muppets think it's ok to assault and injure the people who come to our rescue 24/7. The ambulance guy I heard on Newstalk ZB this morning sounded like he's in the “give it a go and see if it works camp”. Which I guess he's more than willing to do given he said that his paramedics are assaulted pretty much every day. He said, at least, a couple of times a day. Prison officers - there were 900 assaults on them last year. But guess what the numbers are for health workers? Numbers aren't available for last year but, according to Health NZ data, there were about 14,000 assaults on staff by patients, family members and visitors between January 2023 and December 2024. The number of assaults increased by 30 percent between the first half of 2023 and the second half of 2024. Fifteen out of 19 health districts saw increases in assaults on staff over the period. No assault on anybody is acceptable. Especially first responders. But, if we're going to judge the situation on numbers, then you could say that the nurses and doctors in our hospitals are at much greater risk of being assaulted than fire, ambulance, police and corrections officers. And emergency department staff, especially, should be protected by this new law. They're not. But they should. Then we get to the broader question as to how or why we've got to the point where a law like this is even needed. How has New Zealand become a place where some of us have a complete disregard for people who are just here to help? That's the wider question. And I reckon there are two possibilities. One, the ambulance guy on the radio mentioned. The other is something much bigger. First - alcohol and drugs. They are undoubtedly part of the problem. Because if you're off your nut on alcohol and/or methamphetamine, you're probably much more likely to have a go at a first responder, aren't you? More likely than if you weren't. And, while I think it's great the Government intends to crack down on first responder assaults, I don't think it's going to make a big difference. The other reason I think we're seeing more and more of this violence towards first responders and hospital staff, is something much deeper. And it's something that I think we are all guilty of - to varying degrees. Respect. Or lack of it. Society, in general, has way less respect for authority than it used to. And we are all more inclined to challenge authority these days than we used to be. So, maybe we shouldn't be surprised that there are some people who take that next-level and are prepared to fight against the authority of ambulance paramedics, firefighters, police officers, corrections officers, doctors and nurses. Sadly, I think that horse has well and truly bolted and I don't see us ever getting back to a time when the idea of assaulting or injuring first responders never entered anyone's head.

The number of patients treated at Ennis' Local Injury Unit has increased for the second consecutive year. New HSE figures show 16,037 people attended the county town's LIU in 2024. It's a marginal 5% rise on the numbers seen there the previous year, with over 1,300 patients now coming through the Ennis Local Injury Unit each month. HSE Regional Health Forum West member Councillor Rita McInerney says it clearly illustrates the need for an Emergency Department in the town.

A new report says the MidWest will need another emergency department and 600 more acute hospital beds by 2040 to meet the demands of the growing population. It comes as The Friends of Ennis Hospital has published its latest research document covering hospital bed capacity projects for the next fifteen years. The group has recommended that a new hospital is built on a new campus and has also poured cold water on HSE plans to build a second 96 bed block at University Hospital Limerick, citing planning obstacles. Chairperson Angela Coll believes a Clare facility is the only viable solution.

Over 2,500 patients presented at University Hospital Limerick's Emergency Department with mental health concerns last year. On average 211 people attended the ED with a mental health crisis every single month last year, with the greatest number of patients seen in May with 261 and the fewest in September with 174. HSE MidWest says it provides a 24-hour crisis liason service at UHL, which involves a specialist team of nurses, doctors and psychiatrists. Shannon Banks Sinn Féin Councillor and HSE Regional Health Forum West Member James Ryan says many patients have to turn to the private sector due to lengthy waiting lists.

HIQA is once again being urged to recommend another Emergency Department for the MidWest, when it publishes its landmark report, which is due in the coming days. The health watchdog has spent the last eight months reviewing emergency and urgent care capacity across Clare, Limerick and North Tipperary, and is expected to present its findings to the Health Minister this week. However HIQA has been unable to confirm if it will meet its target of publishing the report this month. Shannon Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan says the need for an ED in Clare is beyond clear.

Individuals with autism often have differences from neurotypical patients related to communication, pain perception, and other treatments, highlighting the importance of autism training for hospital and emergency department staff. This can help prevent unnecessary care delays or misdiagnosis, patient anxiety, and potential sensory meltdowns. Bergen New Bridge Medical Center's Emergency Department recently received the Certified Autism Center™ (CAC) designation from the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES). In addition to the training and certification, IBCCES also completed an onsite review of the Medical Center to provide additional recommendations to enhance the overall experience for autistic and sensory-sensitive patients and their families.Darian Eletto, Chief Clinical Officer, Behavioral Health Services, and Julia Orlando, Vice President of Integrative Services, will discuss the certification process and what it means for Bergen New Bridge.

Contributor: Aaron Lessen, MD Educational Pearls: How do we take care of kids in severe pain? There are many non-pharmacologic options for pain (i.e. ice, elevation) as well as more conventional medication options (i.e. acetaminophen, NSAIDS) but in severe pain stronger medications might be indicated. These stronger medications include options such as IV morphine, a subdissociative dose of ketamine, as well as intranasal fentanyl. Intranasal fentanyl has many advantages: Studies have shown it might be more effective early on in controlling pain, as in the first 15-20 minutes after administration, and then becomes equivalent to other pain control options Total adverse effects were also lower with IN fentanyl, including low rates of nausea and vomiting To administer, use the IV formulation with an atomizer and spray into the nose; therefore, you do not need an IV line Dose is 1-2 micrograms per kilogram, can be redosed once at 10 minutes.  Don't forget about gabapentinoids for neuropathic pain, muscle relaxants for muscle spasms, and nerve blocks when appropriate. (Disclaimer: muscle relaxers have not been well studied in children) References Alsabri M, Hafez AH, Singer E, Elhady MM, Waqar M, Gill P.
