EMERGENCY ROOM /OUT PATIENT SERVICES
The hospital emergency service offers great opportunities and challenges to its staff. It is often referred to as “show window” of the hospital, since first impressions are built on the hospital’s technical and professional capabilities and could provide sources of pride and honor to the hospital. Public awareness and confidence in hospital as the best place to obtain “round the clock care” of unexpected illnesses and emergency care can explain the growing number of patients that visit the Emergency Room.
