and clinical aspects of both the immediate and ongoing
care of patients admitted as emergencies. The report
highlights remediable factors in existing care pathways,
particularly the appropriateness, timeliness and frequency
of investigations and reviews, the experience of staff and
the availability of results, protocols and procedures.
