Hospital 4 Ward - Medical Directorate

4 Ward is a twenty-three bedded ward including three single rooms. The purpose of the ward is to provide safe and effective discharge planning for medical patients who require goal-oriented input from the multi- disciplinary team. In addition to this cohort of patients, we also care for a wide range of acute medical conditions. Patient-centered care is at the heart of all that we do.

4 Ward received the 2022 in-house Nursing Metrics Award for excellent quality care.

Stimulate patient’s creativity by providing creative activities for our patients such as art, craft, music and bingo for their mental and physical wellbeing.
