Our state-of-the-art Critical Care Unit (CCU) is designed to handle emergencies with precision, compassion, and expertise.
What is Critical Care?
Critical care, also known as intensive care, is a specialized branch of medicine focused on patients with life-threatening illnesses or injuries. These patients require continuous monitoring, advanced medical technology, and a team of highly trained healthcare professionals who can make split-second decisions to stabilize and improve their conditions.

Our 24/7 intensive care unit (ICU) is equipped with cutting-edge medical technology and is staffed by experienced specialists, including intensivists, critical care nurses, anesthesiologists, and respiratory therapists. We provide:
- Round-the-clock monitoring with advanced machines tracking vital signs.
- Support for multiple organ systems, including ventilators for breathing assistance and dialysis for kidney support.
- Stabilization and recovery-focused care to ensure patients receive immediate interventions and long-term healing.
