Introduction: Emergency medicine is a dynamic specialty that offers various medical cases and situations. Emergency medicine doctors treat patients from all age groups and with a large spectrum of physical and mental disorders. Emergency medicine is the specialty of treating illnesses or injuries requiring immediate medical attention. Emergency medicine doctors assess and treat patients in the emergency department, regardless of their illness or injury type. Their main focus is to stabilize patients as quickly as possible and determine the best next step in treating many patients simultaneously, with life-threatening conditions being the main priority. Emergency physicians treat all medical conditions of all age groups, such as cardiology, neurological, pulmonological, nephrological, endocrinological, hematological, gastrointestinal, orthopedic, gynecological-obstetrical, dermatological, psychiatric, traumatological, and accidental conditions. Efforts should be made to reduce the accumulation of ED with a solid organizational culture; rather than adopting “generic” approaches, interventions should be selected and implemented to address the unique challenges of each hospital ED. Emergency medicine can potentially improve patient care and outcomes; however, establishing evidence-based protocols and a multidisciplinary approach to patient management are essential. Creating long-term health policies to regulate the referral system through the national plan and document would regulate the three levels of health care to stop the overcrowding of the hospital's ED.
