Emergency Medicine
Overview
The Department of Emergency Medicine (EMD) at Bharati Hospital, Pune, delivers continuous emergency care to both adult and paediatric patients through a structured, zone-based system. Patients are triaged into Red, Yellow, or Green zones based on clinical urgency, ensuring rapid stabilization and effective resource utilization. The department is equipped with advanced resuscitation and monitoring systems, including ventilators, multi-parameter monitors, defibrillators, and crash carts.
With a team of trained emergency physicians, nurses, and support staff, the EMD provides expert care in handling trauma, cardiac events, poisoning, strokes, and other medical emergencies. The department also plays a critical role in intrahospital transfers, disaster response, and mass casualty situations. After initial treatment and stabilization, patients are either discharged or transferred to the appropriate specialty unit for further care.
