Abstract
Introduction:
In 2017 the Samson Assuta Ashdod University Hospital opened its doors to the public. The opening of a new public hospital presented a unique opportunity to create a fully integrated emergency department, staffed exclusively by emergency medicine physicians, based on the Anglo-American model; the first of its kind in Israel. In this article we describe the model: its establishment, the challenges it presented, the solutions implemented and the interim outcomes.
