The critical care department offers the following services:

Intensive Care Unit (ICU) - Our patients receive one to one or one to two nursing, depending on their needs. A doctor is available at all times and patients are also seen regularly throughout the day by the intensive care consultant. We have nursing staff on the unit who are all specially trained to a high level and patients are seen daily by a multi-disciplinary team, the physiotherapists, dieticians and others as necessary to meet their needs.

High Dependency Unit (HDU) - We provide a wide range of specialist medical care for both medical and surgical patients. We also provide step-down care to patients discharged from the Intensive Care Unit requiring intermediate treatment and monitoring prior to discharge to a general ward.

Through your generosity we can support staff to deliver the best possible care to critically ill patients and their families in Medway and Swale.

Thank you for your support.
