A hospital is an institution for health care, often but not
always providing for longer-term patient stays.
Today, hospitals
are usually funded by the state, health organisations (for profit
or non-profit), by health insurances or by charities and by
donations. In history, however, they were often founded and funded
by religious orders or charitable individuals and leaders.
Hospitals are nowadays staffed by professional physicians,
surgeons and nurses, whereas in history, this work was usually
done by the founding religious orders or by volunteers.
Some patients just come for diagnosis and/or therapy and then
leave (outpatients); while others are admitted and
stay overnight or for several weeks or months (inpatients).
Hospitals are usually distinguished from other types of medical
facilities by their ability to admit and care for inpatients.
An Emergency Medical Service system (abbreviated to acronym
"EMS" in many countries) is a service providing pre-hospital (or
out-of-hospital) acute care to patients with illnesses and
injuries. The most common and recognised EMS type is an Ambulance
organisation. In some places, an EMS organisation may also be
called a First Aid Squad, Emergency Squad, Safety Squad, Rescue
Squad, Ambulance Squad, Ambulance Service, Ambulance Corps or Life
Squad.
