The establishment of comprehensive medical care systems in 2010 has enabled us to provide all patients requiring primary to tertiary care with emergency physicians' treatment, as necessary. In addition, construction work to install 6 ICU beds to be exclusively used for critical care and an emergency ward consisting of 14 beds took place from May to July, 2010, in order to establish a system to provide patients in a serious condition with emergency care on a 24-hour basis. Although the number of emergency patients temporarily decreased due to construction work, the number of those requiring tertiary emergency care has been particularly and rapidly increased since then.
