What is the purpose of the Standing Delegated Orders (SDOs) in the protocols?

The purpose of the Standing Delegated Orders (SDOs) in the protocols is to provide differential-based protocols for patient care. These orders allow healthcare providers to act within a set framework when assessing and treating patients, ensuring that care is appropriately tailored to the specific needs of individual patients based on their condition and circumstances. By utilizing SDOs, providers can deliver timely and effective care, adhering to established protocols that dictate the necessary actions and interventions based on various scenarios and clinical presentations. This approach not only enhances patient safety but also standardizes treatment methods across the team, facilitating a cohesive response during critical care situations.
