Concepts and principles of emergency care

Emergency care is the immediate, life‑saving care provided to patients with acute illnesses or injuries. Mastering its core concepts—triage, rapid assessment, stabilization, and the ABCs—ensures nurses can prioritise patients, initiate timely interventions, and improve survival rates, which is a key exam focus.
