How can nurses balance the need for quick and efficient triage with thorough patient assessments to avoid the pitfalls of under-triage and over-triage in emergency departments?

In this episode of the Transformation Nurse Academy, we dive deep into understanding the Emergency Severity Index (ESI) – a crucial triage system that categorizes patients based on the severity of their conditions and the resources they require. 

Join us as we explore how the ESI helps prioritize patient care in the emergency department, ensuring that those in critical condition receive immediate attention while managing resources efficiently.
