The emergency department is a leading source of professional liability claims against hospitals and healthcare providers. The chaotic environment, difficult patient presentations and lack of communication and care coordination all contribute to ED liability risk.

- identify common causes of professional liability claims in the ED;
- recognize communication issues that contribute to claims in the ED;
