Perceptions and experience of emergency discharge as reported by nurses and medical officers

Emergency Department (ED) discharge involves the communication of healthcare information to optimise patient safety, selfmanagement, and understanding and compliance with ongoing treatment. However, little is known about the discharge practices or processesn undertaken by emergency clinicians. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore the experience and perceptions of managing ED patient discharge by clinicians.
