Medicine
is the science and art (ars medicina) of healing humans. It includes a variety of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness. Before scientific medicine, healing arts were practiced along with "Eastern medicine" — which are typically based in traditional, story-told, or otherwise non-scientific practices.
Contemporary medicine applies health science, biomedical research, and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically through medication, surgery, or some other form of therapy. The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.
Though medical technology and clinical expertise are pivotal to contemporary medicine, successful face-to-face relief of actual suffering continues to require the application of ordinary human feeling and compassion, known in English as bedside manner.

Emergency medicine is a tremendously challenging medical specialty. Fortunately,
this field is profoundly rewarding. It gives health care professionals the unique
opportunity to help individuals at their time of greatest need. Sometimes, simply
offering reassurance, kindness or compassion is all that we can do; the importance
of which should never be underestimated.
In emergency medicine, health care professionals assist individuals whose pain,
anxiety and stress levels are high. Often, our quick decisions and actions are lifesaving.
Emergency medicine personnel continuously use their extraordinary skills,
knowledge and experience to “make things happen” and “get the job done,” in an
attempt to positively impact patients and their families, significant others, friends
and persons important to them.
In reality, physicians, nurses, mid-level providers, paramedics, residents and medical
students generally have time to look up information from various sources. Yet
emergency personnel have the responsibility to provide services not available to
individuals at that moment anywhere other than an emergency department. Therefore,
our purpose is even more vital.
