Episode 17 – Under Pressure

Working in Emergency Departments can place us in high pressure situations. How we handle that pressure in performing our roles is a learned process as much as any other. Emergency Physician Dr Karen Coss provides us with her insights and knowledge on how to approach these situations.

Notes and References:

Emergency Medicine is a practice that requires good procedural skills and clinical acumen but also good "soft" skills such as communication and team management but equally importantly self management. Dr Karen Coss, Director of Emergency Medicine at Tamworth Regional Referral Hospital in North Western NSW provides us with the insights she has learned through her reading and personal experience.
