Hey! I was reading in an other thread that some EM residents don't actually talk to the admitting teams. Does this mean that you don't ever present the patient to a resident/attending/hospitalist/surgeon/podiatrist/orthopedist/etc, etc, etc. over the phone?? Just strikes me as odd. Just wanted to find out the info on that procedure...
Perhaps that causes some angst between us and consultants?? If a unit clerk calls a surgeon and says there is an urgent belly to be seen (and the clerk doesn't know the details), won't the surgeon be upset? I know that personally I would be...
I am not trying to rile people up; I just wanted to find out more about this trend (if it can even be called that).
