What is an Emergency Department?

An emergency department is where conditions requiring urgent medical intervention due to sudden diseases, injuries, or accidents are evaluated, treated, and stabilized. The main functions include protecting vital functions, managing pain, and initiating diagnosis and treatment processes.

Emergency Areas

• Red Area: Patients in life-threatening situations such as heart attacks, strokes, and serious injuries are treated here.
• Yellow Area: Patients with unstable conditions requiring urgent intervention, such as fractures, burns, and severe abdominal pain, are treated in this area.
• Green Area: Stable patients with non-urgent conditions like minor injuries, colds, and flu are treated in the green area.

A triage nurse quickly assesses your condition upon arrival and directs you to the appropriate area based on urgency.

Emergency Departments

The emergency department is divided into specialized units, each staffed by skilled healthcare professionals:

• Triage Department: Patients are evaluated and prioritized based on the severity of their condition.
• Resuscitation Department: Patients with life-threatening conditions receive immediate care here.
• Trauma Department: Injuries from accidents, falls, and other traumatic events are treated in this unit.
• Observation Department: Patients requiring short-term follow-up and treatment are monitored in this department.

Our multidisciplinary team, including emergency medicine specialists, nurses, radiology technicians, and laboratory specialists, ensures the best medical care at every stage of emergencies.
