Telephone Triage Skills

The aim of telephone triage is to determine the urgency and necessary care level of a patient and provide advice to that client. For every phone call answered, it is our job, as the triage nurse or client care representative to seek to understand what state of emergency the patient is (or is not) in and provide the best care possible. The challenge for us in Veterinary Medicine, is that we are not speaking to the patient, but rather an interpreter of the patient. Therefore our telephone triage technique matters.
