NURSING SERVICES TO PATIENTS IN THE EMERGENCY UNIT

Abstract

Patient overcrowding has resulted in national and international crises as a result of the increasing number of emergency room visits. Patients will feel dissatisfied with the services provided by the ER as a result of the long waiting times caused by this. Assessing and setting priorities for a wider range of clinical conditions in a variety of sudden situations, from critical to life-threatening, is one of the responsibilities of emergency nurses. Descriptive research was used as the research design. Researchers at Ibnu Sina Hospital numbered 25 respondents. 1. From the results of research with a total of 25 respondents, the writing will discuss the description of emergency nursing services for patients in the emergency room. Emergency nurse services for patients in the Ibn Sina emergency room in Makassar showed that the service was sufficient for 9 respondents (36%) and not enough for 16 respondents (64%). Future researchers are expected to be able to use the data and information obtained as a reference for developing additional research regarding the description of emergency nursing services provided to emergency room patients.
