The department is made up of the following areas:

All patients are registered in the department upon their arrival in the smart purpose-built reception area at the entrance to the building. The new waiting room, opened in 2021, has increased the capacity almost five-fold, leading to a much better experience for patients and visitors.

 

A triage nurse assesses patients on arrival to the Emergency Department. There are two entrances to the department of which one is for patients who self-present and one is for patients brought in by ambulance.

The Emergency Room has four fully equipped bays to provide emergency care for patients requiring resuscitation or urgent intervention. It also has X-ray facilities and a designated paediatric resuscitation bay.
