Fast-Track A&E: Beat The Queue, Beat The Clock

By Louistas Nyuyse

The average NHS A&E waiting time now exceeds four hours - and for many patients, it is significantly longer. What you do in the first minutes of arriving at an emergency department can determine not only how quickly you are seen, but the quality of care you receive.

This is the book your A&E nurse wishes every patient would read before they walked through the door. Written by Louistas Nyuyse - an NMC Registered Nurse with over 22 years of frontline emergency nursing experience - Fast-Track A&E gives patients, families, and carers the insider knowledge that transforms a distressing, confusing experience into a navigable one.

Across two powerful sections, you will learn: How A&E triage works and exactly what nurses and doctors are assessing in the first 60 secondsThe specific information to have ready that speeds up your assessment and reduces repeat questioningHow to navigate different global healthcare systems - from the NHS to private and international settingsWhen to go to A&E versus walk-in centres, urgent care, or 111 - and how this choice affects your waitHow to advocate confidently for yourself or a vulnerable person in an emergency settingManaging medication details, allergies and medical history in a way that accelerates your care
In an emergency, knowledge is not just power - it is time. And time saves lives. This book is your preparation for the moment you cannot afford to be unprepared.

Ideal for patients, family carers, healthcare students, and international visitors unfamiliar with the NHS.
