Streaming patients in UEC

When a patient attends UEC Urgent and Emergency Care. In Nervecentre, this covers 'ED areas' and SDEC., you can review the patient's condition to determine the care they need. This process is called streaming. When you review a patient's condition, you complete a streaming form. You might decide the patient needs to stay in an ED area 'Emergency department' areas. These areas can be in emergency departments, urgent treatment centres, urgent care centres, and minor injury units. These areas handle acute and non-acute medical emergencies, and they have a four hour target., go to SDEC Same Day Emergency Care. These areas aim to complete treating patients without a hospital admission or overnight stay. These areas don't have a four hour target., go visit their GP, or go home.

If the patient is being streamed away from an ED area, you must depart the patient from the ED area and perform any necessary administrative actions, for example, preadmitting the patient to SDEC.
