Summary
This study looked at how combining non-medical practitioners (like nurses and paramedics) with doctors in English emergency departments affects patient care. Researchers analyzed data from 840 NHS trusts and six case-study sites to see if different staff mixes lead to fewer return visits and shorter wait times. The goal is to recommend the best balance of staff to improve patient outcomes and NHS efficiency.
