A fellowship in observation medicine prepares emergency physicians to lead clinical care, quality improvement, and clinical operations outside of the emergency phase of care. The specialty of observation medicine is growing as a solution to improve patient throughput and provide efficient use of health care resources by developing effective patient flow processes and evidence-based clinical protocols.
