Is community emergency medicine cost effective?
In Bristol when you match those seen by a CEMS versus those seen directly in ED the costings work out as >£1,000,000 saved in bed days.

Funding Community Emergency Medicine (CEM) presents a challenge. While there are key performance indicators, few reflect the patient-centred approach and tackling health inequity, making it difficult to justify to those with the purse strings. #CEMCon25
Some key stats for frail patients: when advised they do not need hospital, there was a 17% mortality for those who remained at home and 47% for those who elected to attend hospital anyway.

You know what I loved this place, I made genuine proper friends who I’ll have for life from here, but the man who bought it chucking out a Nazi salute during the inauguration? Nah. We’re done.
See you elsewhere friends ✌️

Trump surrounded himself at his rallies with everyday Americans, coal miners, police officers, teachers, factory workers. Why only politicians and billionaires for the inauguration?
Day one of registering for the Community Emergency Medicine Conference mailing list garnered 130 sign-ups! Don’t miss out on the chance to hear about tickets first -

Our team on the road is a collaboration between a senior EM doctor and a pre-hospital clinician from the ambulance service, often alongside a senior EM nurse.
We are also helped by a CEM consultant accessible via phone for advice and a management team at base for ops support.
Part of community emergency medicine is working out which groups of patients we can make a particular difference in.
We think cancer patients at risk of neutropenia are a cohort where we can change the trajectory of emergency care.
