Abstract

The Nurse consultation (CI) was implemented in 2013 at the emergency department of the Lausanne Children's Hospital. It offers medical delegated care for children aged three to 18. Ten years after its implementation, this article takes stock of its progress. Patients and families are satisfied with the care provided at a rate of 94.3 %. The CI seems to offer quality and safe healthcare. It allows the emergency team to have more time and resources for patients whose lives are at risk or need careful assessment due to their age or medical history. The CI is an innovative and relevant model of care in the context of uncomplicated childhood illnesses.
