Abstract:

A study of emergency referrals to GPs and hospital accident and emergency departments from nursing homes found that most were appropriate. The most usual reasons for referral were chest infections and changes in medication. Referrals were fewer than five a month per nursing home. Protocols for emergency referrals could improve consistency of care.
