However, such settings are often noisy, fast paced and unpredictable, which can make nurse-patient communication challenging. Effective communication requires the appropriate knowledge and skills underpinned by clarity, mutual understanding, respect and empathy. However, maximising nurse-patient communication requires various practical and strategic measures, ranging from addressing the environmental challenges of the ED and meeting patients' individual communication needs, to implementing quality control measures and supporting mentorship, reflection and education in practice.

This article provides an overview of frailty and its assessment in older people presenting to the ED.
