Caribbean hospital expands ICU for international patients
Health City Cayman has expanded its intensive care unit capabilities, now operating a Level 3 trauma centre. This follows the commissioning of its newly expanded Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU) in early December 2018. The unit officially opened on 10 December following a nine-month expansion project that increased the ICU’s trauma and triage capabilities.
Dr Devi Shetty, Chairman of Narayana Health and Founder of Health City Cayman Islands, highlighted the hospital’s commitment to providing world-class medical care to patients in the Americas: “We built Health City with the idea of transforming healthcare in the Western Hemisphere. The core of our vision is to make high-level health care more accessible and affordable for more people, who may previously have not had this access. The expansion of our Intensive Care Unit at Health City is another step in the ongoing development of our services to benefit the people of the Cayman Islands, the surrounding region, and international patients from further afield.”
Dr Shetty said that the hospital’s mission is to transform the delivery of healthcare in the Caribbean and beyond, and that it is committed to providing the highest level of medical care to local and international patients.
