To ensure the observation, care and monitoring of patients after they have been admitted, until they have been referred, the establishment organises diagnostic and therapeutic care as follows:
1° Within the emergency department ;
2° Within the short-stay hospital unit ;
3° Directly in one of the establishment’s care structures, in particular as part of the specific care provided for in articles R. 6123-32-1 to R. 6123-32-9 ;
4° By referring the patient to a consultation in the establishment or in another health establishment;
5° In liaison with the SAMU, by referring the patient to another health establishment capable of taking charge of him and, if necessary, by ensuring his transfer or having it ensured;
6° By referring the patient to a general practitioner or to any other health facility or any other medico-social facility appropriate to the patient’s condition or situation.
