Accident & Emergency

Ready for the unexpected, all day, every day

Our emergency unit is on standby with a trained team of doctors, nurses and support staff to quickly manage unexpected situations that demand immediate medical attention.

Keep in mind that the emergency situations faced by adults may differ from those faced by children, with the latter being at high risk of choking or suffocation from hazards at home.

We understand that every second counts

Every case that arrives at our unit is evaluated immediately, with severe, life-threatening conditions given priority. Our specialists and surgeons are only a call away should their services be required urgently. We take every effort to dispense the most effective care as quickly as possible while also ensuring that you get all the emotional support you need.
