First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at whether having an advanced practice nurse in the emergency department can help reduce the number of patients who return within 15 days. Researchers tracked 328 patients who visited the emergency room to see if a nurse specializing in emergency and post-emergency care could improve care flow and lower repeat visits. The goal is to find ways to ease overcrowding and improve access to care.
