emergency departments

Emergency departments (EDs) are specialized hospital areas that provide immediate care for urgent and severe health issues, such as accidents, chest pain, or severe infections. They are staffed by trained healthcare professionals who assess, diagnose, and treat patients quickly, often around the clock. The goal is to address life-threatening conditions promptly and stabilize patients before they can be transferred for specialized treatment if needed. EDs operate 24/7 and prioritize cases based on urgency, ensuring those with the most critical needs receive immediate attention.
