Guide for use: | Emergency department non-admitted clinical care can be commenced by a doctor, nurse, mental health practitioner or other health professional, when investigation, care and/or treatment is provided in accordance with an established clinical pathway defined by the emergency department. Placement of a patient in a cubicle and observations taken to monitor a patient pending a clinical decision regarding commencement of a clinical pathway, do not constitute commencement. Patients with an episode end status of 'Did not wait to be attended by a healthcare professional' should not have a clinical care commencement time, because by definition, they left before being attended by a health professional. The following examples illustrate the commencement of emergency department non-admitted clinical care. Example 1
