Emergency Department (ED)
Emergency Department (ED)
“Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect”
An emergency department (ED), also known as an accident & emergency department (A&E), emergency room (ER), emergency ward (EW), or casualty department, is a medical treatment facility specializing in emergency medicine, the acute care of patients who present without prior appointment; either by their own means or by that of an ambulance.
The emergency department is usually found in a hospital or other primary care center.
Due to the unplanned nature of patient attendance, the department must provide initial treatment for a broad spectrum of illnesses and injuries, some of which may be life-threatening and require immediate attention. In some countries, emergency departments have become important entry points for those without other means of access to medical care.
The emergency departments of most hospitals operate 24 hours a day, although staffing levels may be varied in an attempt to reflect patient volume.
