Expert Musculoskeletal Assessor 1 (Ema1)
CurrentAs part of a new pilot within AHS, we implement a rapid triage model for shoulder and knee pathologies referred to orthopedic surgeons. As an EMA1, I am able to either independently, or along with specialized physicians, assess and triage patients into surgical or non-surgical pathways. For non-surgical patients, my role also includes creating and starting a treatment plan with follow up to ensure effectiveness.
