Keeping up to date is key to provide better care to patients with acute pathologies in primary health care"
Emergency health care is an essential element in a health system, in which quality and ongoing care for individuals must be guaranteed. Primary care is the gateway to the health system, often receiving patients with potentially serious conditions that require immediate and complex treatment, often accompanied by minimal resources.
Considering the long hours primary care physicians spend on patients with acute pathologies, the importance they have, and current patient and professional demand for greater professional quality, more than justify that primary care physicians today should be able to intervene in all acute and urgent pathologies that may arise regardless of the level of severity. For this reason, the role of primary care physicians who treat acute pathologies are crucial.
