Emergency medicine is a subspecialty that focuses on patients who need immediate and often intensive care.

With their knowledge of emergency medicine comes knowledge about many other types of medicine, as they must be able to respond to patients who present a variety of symptoms and problems. They will also have a thorough understanding of emergency medical devices.
