| rdfs:comment | - Emergency Medicine is the medical specialty concerned with the stabilization, management and diagnosis of individuals with acute (and usually life threatening) illness and injury. Emergency Medicine encompasses a large amount of general medicine, involving the technical and cognitive aspects of virtually all fields of medicine and surgery. In modern times, Emergency Medicine Technicians stabilize a person in dire medical straits, and further treatment is administered in a hospital. However, even today there are rare times where a hospital is inaccessible, and the technician (or layperson) must do what they can to keep the person alive. Obviously, in a zombie pandemic, hospital trips are at best inadvisable due to the high number of infected likely there, or at worst, impossible.

EM physicians and pre-hospital personnel like ambulance workers provide initial patient care with the aim of providing patient comfort and improving long-term patient outcome.
- Emergency medicine is a speciality of medicine that focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of acute illnesses and injuries that require immediate medical attention. While not usually providing long-term or continuing care, emergency medicine physicians diagnose a wide array of pathology and undertake acute interventions to stabilize the patient. These professionals practice in hospital emergency departments, in the prehospital setting via emergency medical service and other locations where initial medical treatment of illness takes place. Just as clinicians operate by immediacy rules under large emergency systems, emergency practioniers aim to diagnose emergent conditions and stabilize the patient for definitive care.

Urgent Care Centers are often staffed by physicians, physician assistants, nurses and nurse practitioners who may or may not be formally trained in emergency medicine. They offer primary care treatment to patients who desire or require immediate care, but who do not reach the acuity that requires care in an emergency department or admission to a hospital.
