Sarah A. Rose, Rowan Oliver, Karl Bonnici, Stephen J. Bonny

Abstract

Ambulatory emergency care offers an attractive method of caring for patients who would traditionally require hospital admission. As well as a superior patient experience, ambulatory care also offers significant cost benefits. In future, implementation of purpose-built units with dedicated teams will alter the delivery of acute health care.
