  Emergency Ward 10 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emergency Ward 10 was a British television series shown on ITV between 1957 and 1967.
Like The Grove Family, a series shown by the BBC between 1954 and 1957, Emergency Ward 10 is considered to be one of British television's first major soap operas.
Emergency Ward 10 was finally axed in 1967 when ratings began to slide after the show had been on air for ten years.

 Emergency department - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The emergency department (ED), emergency room (ER), emergency ward (EW), accident and emergency department (AandE) or casualty department is a hospital or primary care department that provides initial treatment to patients with a broad spectrum of illnesses and injuries, some of which may be life-threatening and requiring immediate attention.
Emergency departments developed during the 20th century in response to an increased need for rapid assessment and management of critical illnesses.
Some emergency departments in smaller hospitals are located near a helipad which is used by helicopters to transport a patient to a trauma center.

 Emergency Ward - 9
The hospital ward as the arena for uncovering the metaphorical, non-medical sicknesses of institutions, of individuals and of roles in society is, of course, one to which Potter returns notably in Moonlight on the Highway, in The Singing Detective and, ultimately, in Karaoke.
The hospital ward is the arena into which people are thrown only by virtue of their common status as patients ('sufferers') or as those who treat patients.
In the general ward, social differences are not taken into account when allocating patients to beds and, as a result, these very differences tend to surface all the more patently.

 Emergency Plan (ward 1)
This and the continuing potential of natural emergency situations to disrupt the environment, necessitate the need to plan for such situations.
The purpose of an emergency plan is to outline arrangements for dealing with the early stages of the emergency in order to reduce the impact of such incidents on the life and livelihood of the community and its citizens.
IT is essential that the plan, in order to be a useful and effective instrument, be kept current and that all agencies or individuals responsible for emergency functions, understand and be kept familiar with their assigned emergency responsibilities.

Though the parking of vehicles in front of the emergency ward is strictly banned and security staff keep asking the people all the time to park vehicles in the parking lot, influential people pay no heed to their requests and feel pride in parking their vehicles right in front of the ward.

 Emergency ward exhausted - Aftenposten.no   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
A nurse at Oslo's emergency ward worked nearly 1,100 hours overtime last year, just the most extreme case in a job where overtime laws are regularly violated.
The Employment Protection Act sets down strict regulations for overtime, with the intention of limiting it as much as possible and there is an upper limit of 200 hours a year, though under special agreements this limit can be stretched to 400 hours a year.
Overtime of 600-800 hours a year is not uncommon at the emergency ward, and now the Norwegian Labor Inspection Authority will investigate.
