When a person is brought into the Emergency Department, are we thinking the same as them? Are we thinking
- Is the patient leaving home with returning in mind
- What does a patient need to get home?
- What do our healthcare professional partners need to do to help a patient return home
The FRESH model challenges us to take a different approach
- Consider how we handover our patients in clinical environments
- Consider how including additional information about the person can go a long way to impact on outcomes and their future care journey
