abstract: Ambulatory emergency care may make about one in six emergency admissions unnecessary, says the NHS Institute. To help organisations implement the appropriate patient pathways, the NHS Institute has a range of resources, including an Ambulatory Emergency Care (AEC) network, and a directory of 49 relevant clinical scenarios and emergency conditions.
