Intensive care and high dependency

Intensive care and high dependency

The critical care unit delivers specialised care to patients who are critically ill and need close observation.

Location
The Princess Alexandra Hospital
Zone B, fourth floor, location B53

Visiting hours
We know that it can a worrying time for family and friends of our patients. We will provide you with regular updates about your relative's care. If you have not received an update recently or have questions about your loved one's care, then please do not hesitate to talk to the nurse in charge. 

There is a visitor’s room in the unit where relatives are able to stay overnight; however it may only be used for one night by a relative of the patient who is severely ill.

If you are not local to the area, we can also provide you with a list of hotel accommodation nearby.

Inpatient comment:

Everyone offered words of such reassurance and kindness. I felt so cared for and the communication with me at all times was fantastic.
