08 — WHEN THE CONSULTATION CHANGES COURSE

Prepare for the moments that do not fit the ordinary case.

The Red Phone explores medical emergencies in General Practice and broken consultations: the patient who is severely wheezy, the signs of sepsis, sudden deterioration or the moment escalation becomes the priority.

This learning area sits beyond standard SCA case practice. It helps trainees rehearse guidance, escalation and decision-making when events go off-script.

Safety note: Educational practice does not replace local protocols, clinical supervision or emergency guidance.
