Answer by candleinthewind7579
The duties of an ER doctor are to assess and diagnose a patients illness or injury, order appropriate scans or tests to aid in diagnosis and treatment, treat if possible, evaluate results and possibly call for a consultation with a specialist or surgeon. They are also expected (as are nurses) to recognize symptoms and patterns of alcohol and/or drug abuse, child abuse, spousal abuse, rape, and molestation, and report to the police or other authorities if a crime has been committed
