Recurrent epistaxis while taking anticoagulation
A fictional 73-year-old on an anticoagulant has had several self-limiting nosebleeds this week. They are worried and have stopped one dose without advice. There is no active heavy bleeding in the station.
Candidate task
Take a focused history, give safe immediate advice within your role, and agree an escalation and follow-up plan without independently changing prescribed anticoagulation.
