ER Resident Explains Why We Send You Home Without an Answer Have you ever gone to the ER with severe symptoms, only to be told your tests were normal and that you could go home? As an emergency medicine resident physician, in this video, I explain one of the biggest misconceptions about the emergency room. The ER's job isn't always to find the final diagnosis—it's to identify and rule out life-threatening emergencies, stabilize patients, and determine the safest next step in care. If you've ever left the ER without an answer, or if you ever experience this in the future, I hope this video helps to provide some insight into why this happens.
