Spire Cardiff Hospital is the only private hospital in Wales with a dedicated intensive care unit, allowing us the ability to undertake some of the most advanced and complex surgery.
Our purpose-built 3 bedded intensive therapy unit is fully equipped with highly sophisticated monitoring devices. Our multidisciplinary team, which include medical and nursing staff, are responsible for one or two patients at a time, where close monitoring takes place.
Patients are admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) if they require a higher level of nursing care and observation. Sometimes this may be precautionary; or it may be due to the fact they require intensive treatment to recover safely. Most patients stay in ICU for one or two nights depending on their condition and the procedure they have undergone.
For further information on our ICU facilitiy call Michelle Osborne our Clinical Services Manager at Spire Cardiff Hospital on 029 2054 2675.
