WardMan

About this reference

WardMan — your ward-cover companion. Unlike the rest of the SurgMan family, WardMan is not organised by specialty: it covers common complications and deterioration that can occur in any surgical patient on the ward, with a step-by-step immediate-action plus escalation (who to call, and when) structure throughout. The NEWS2 & SBAR tab condenses the core assessment and communication tools, the Investigations tab covers interpreting common blood results, ABGs, chest X-rays and other common X-rays, and the Escalation & Contacts tab sets out the realistic UK on-call hierarchy. This is Claude's synthesis of public guidance for quick reference, not an official trust document — always verify against current trust guidance and the full NICE/NCEPOD/society sources, and discuss with a senior when unsure.
