I am currently working in a 13 bed ER that sees approx 17 K /yr. The hospital I work at also has several WI clinics throughout the community as well as UC/ED staffed with RNs and physicians from the 13 bed ER (so we float around). If a pt needs to be admitted they can come to the ED to complete there work-up or be a direct admit to the floor. We do board patients occasionally as well as hold psych patients until they can be transferred until they are accepted to a facility.
