During this webinar, explore Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center's Cardiac Direct Access (CDAc) Unit. This groundbreaking inpatient urgent care model allows patients with non-life-threatening cardiac symptoms to bypass the emergency department. In this 60-minute session, Dr. Gavin will detail how their specialized unit reduces wait times, and improves patient care through strategic exam rooms, observation areas, and advanced capabilities. Participants will learn about the unit's unique structure, staffing model, and patient outcomes, with an interactive Q&A session where attendees can gain deeper insights and ask targeted questions about implementing similar cardiovascular care innovations.
