    Admission involves allowing a patient to stay in a hospital for observation, investigation, treatment, and care. There are two main types of admission: emergency admission for acute conditions requiring immediate treatment, and routine admission for planned observation and medical or surgical treatment of issues like hypertension, diabetes, or bronchitis. A nurse's role in admission includes making observations of the patient's condition, orienting the patient and relatives to hospital policies, following procedures for medico-legal cases, and carefully handling patients with communicable diseases, isolating them if necessary. During the admission process at the admitting department, patients provide personal information and sign consent forms before being taken to their unit or ward, with family providing this for critically ill patients.
