Summary

This study is designed to understand better how nurses, paramedics, and other healthcare professionals who have completed extra training to become Emergency Care Advanced Clinical Practitioners (EC-ACPs) work in emergency departments (EDs).

The research questions are:

1\) What is the EC-ACP's perception of assimilation into emergency care teams, what tensions are created due to the role, and what system adaptations are required to facilitate integration?

With secondary aims :

1. What are the common organisational factors that affect the implementation of the EC-ACP workforce, and what recommendations can be made to improve Trust-wide implementation?
2. How are EC-ACPs deployed in two contrasting emergency departments, what differences can be identified in their Work-As-Done (WAD), and how does this compare to the Work-As-Imagined (WAI) of the role?

No patient data is being collected; the participants will all be hospital staff:

1. EC-ACP participants will be observed in practice, interviewed, or both.
2. Staff who are not EC-ACPs but work with them will be interviewed for their thoughts on how they work together.
