Accident and Emergency Attendance Treatment End Date

Accident and Emergency Attendance Treatment End Date is the date the Accident and Emergency clinical staff finished treating the patient in their department.

This is the date that the patient is clinically defined as being:

a)       ready to be discharged

b)       ready to be transferred via ambulance to continue treatment elsewhere

c)        ready for admission onto a ward

OR the date that the patient self discharges or dies

Note: For patients being discharged from the Accident and Emergency Department because they are clinically fit to leave, the Treatment End Date and the Administrative End Date will be the same.
