How We Approach Critical Care

Behind every monitor, every vital sign, every alarm lies not just a patient but someone's mother, father, child, partner—someone deeply loved and desperately needed. This understanding shapes every decision our intensivists make.

Critical care demands both scientific precision and profound humanity. Our physicians conduct multidisciplinary rounds each morning, where pulmonologists, cardiologists, surgeons, and nurses converge to ensure no detail escapes notice. We employ evidence-based protocols refined through fellowship training at international institutions, yet we never lose sight of the individual patient healing in each bed. When families arrive anxious and exhausted, they find not just advanced equipment but physicians who take time to explain, to listen, to acknowledge the weight of their worry.

Respiratory Excellence

Invasive and non-invasive ventilation protocols

Five dedicated respiratory therapists bring specialized expertise in mechanical ventilation, ensuring each breath is optimized for the patient's evolving physiologic needs.

❤️

Cardiac Support

IABP and advanced hemodynamic monitoring

Central monitoring stations allow our teams to detect subtle changes before they become crises, supported by intra-aortic balloon pump capabilities for complex cardiac cases.

Renal Replacement

CRRT and hemodialysis immediately available

When kidney function falters, our continuous renal replacement therapy provides the bridge critically ill patients need, without delays or transfers to other facilities.

Supporting Families Through Crisis

Critical illness affects entire families. We recognize that healing extends beyond the patient to encompass everyone walking this difficult path.

👥

Thoughtful Visitation

We welcome one adult visitor at bedside, balancing family presence with infection control and patient rest. Children are respectfully asked to wait in family areas where their developing immune systems remain protected. Visiting hours accommodate work schedules while preserving the quiet periods critically ill patients need for recovery.

💬

Clear Communication

Our intensivists conduct daily family conferences, explaining medical decisions in plain language and inviting questions without time pressure. We provide regular updates even when conditions remain unchanged, understanding that silence breeds anxiety. Night supervisors ensure families receive information promptly if clinical status shifts after hours.

When ICU Care Becomes Necessary

Intensive care admission follows carefully considered clinical criteria, ensuring our resources reach those whose conditions demand the heightened surveillance and intervention only an ICU environment provides.

🚨

Life-Threatening Conditions

  • Respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation
  • Septic shock with multi-organ involvement
  • Post-cardiac arrest resuscitation and stabilization
  • Hemodynamic instability demanding continuous monitoring
🩺

Post-Surgical Recovery

  • All patients following cardiac surgical procedures
  • Complex transplantation requiring close monitoring
  • Major operations where physiologic reserve demands ICU-level support

Where You'll Receive Care

Our 150 beds span specialized units, each designed for particular patient populations and clinical needs.

👶

Neonatal & Pediatric Intensive Care

  • NICU - 10 beds
  • PICU - 4 beds

Our smallest patients receive care calibrated to their unique physiology, where specialized monitoring adapts to fragile newborn systems and pediatric protocols honor the delicate balance between intervention and healing.

🫀

Cardiac Critical Care

  • CCU - 16 beds
  • CICU - 10 beds (6 general + 4 isolation)

When the heart falters, our cardiac intensivists respond with precision surveillance through centralized monitoring stations, supported by intra-aortic balloon pump capabilities and isolation facilities for complex post-operative cases.

🏥

Medical ICU

  • Medical ICU
  • GI and Liver ICU

From acute medical crises to gastrointestinal and hepatic emergencies, our physicians navigate the complexities of critical illness with both clinical acumen and unwavering attention to individual patient needs.

🩺

Surgical & Transplant Critical Care

  • High Dependency Unit (HDU)
  • Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

Dedicated critical care for post-operative patients across all ages, from complex transplantations requiring meticulous monitoring to major surgical procedures where physiologic reserve demands heightened surveillance.
