dc.description	Injury Units (IUs) offer an alternative to Emergency Departments for patients who meet the inclusion criteria, but patient care and safety is potentially compromised when the wrong patients attend. The public’s confidence in the in the IU model has been demonstrated by the continuing increase in attendances and supported by the findings of the patient experience surveys undertaken by the HSE. Accompanying the increase in attendance has been an increase in out-of-scope presentations. This audit reviewed the recording and referral of out-of-scope presentations to IUs in 2023.	en_US
