Emergency Room Manager

How do the physicians interact with your department?

Asked by Tracy almost 13 years ago

We have a wonderful relationship with the ED physicians. They are a contracted group of ED board certified physicians, we have had the contract with them for over 20 years. The relationships in the department are very collegial and we work well together. The docs and the RNs are in constant communication about the care of the patients. Since the department is so geographically large, everyone carries cell phones so it is easy to contact each other. We also have the ability to communicate with each other electronically on our computer tracking boards.

I've invented a new approach to managing the spread of germs and viruses. The product uses no chemicals and is called a Coughy Cup. Would you mind writing me at CoughyCup@gmail.com so I can ask you a few questions?

Hi! I recently received a position as the Manager of the Emergency Department...but I am not a nurse. Everyone keeps saying I am not qualified for this position, are they right?!

Asked by Tamara C over 12 years ago

Nearly all of the  clinical managers that I know of in the Emergency Department are nurses.  The majority of the staff are nurses and nurse aides/techs, so in order to manage the staff and understand their scope of practice and job responsibilites, a nursing degree as a basis is a necessity.  There are some large Emergency Departments that may have a business manager or operations manager, along with the clinical manager (nurse) that has some type of business or healthcare administration degree, but I have not seen that many out there.  I understand it is a growing field, have you been hired in that capacity?

How much experience in years and education must an ER nurse have to assist in major ER surgeries. And do they work on set trauma teams under the same Doctor each time? What is the chain of command in an ER?

Hi, I have heard by the media that most hospitals are full but have also heard this is a total lie and most are not that full. What is it really?
