RESUMEN

Advanced clinical practitioners (ACPs) encounter patients with acute dermatological presentations ranging from minor to life-threatening conditions in both primary and secondary care settings. However, ACPs often feel unprepared to assess and treat patients with dermatological emergencies. This article aims to provide guidance to trainee and qualified ACPs, whether in acute hospital settings or primary care, in understanding the essential aspects to consider when consulting with patients presenting with acute dermatological emergencies. It also emphasises appropriate referrals to relevant specialties for necessary inpatient or outpatient investigations and ensure prompt treatment.
