[Management of the end of life in the emergency department: evaluation of a dedicated training course on emergency department practices at the CHU Ambroise Paré]

Abstract

End of life is a common situation in emergency medicine. However, the training of nursing staff seems to be lacking in this area. We studied the impact of dedicated training on the management of end-of-life patients admitted to the adult emergency department of the Ambroise-Paré University Hospital.
