Why Manipal?
The emergency department at Manipal Hospitals has a team of multidisciplinary doctors, nurses trained in critical care and emergency, and specialists who are available around the clock. Once the patient is admitted, a triage of nurses examines and allot to a zone depending on the severity of the condition. Patients with life-threatening and time-critical conditions like heart attack, stroke and major accidents are immediately attended by a doctor and managed in a separate dedicated zone called the Resuscitation Bay. The patient is directly shifted to this bay without any delay where a team of expert doctors and nurses immediately assess and start interventions to stabilize the patient. Using state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment, Manipal Hospitals is quickly able to scan the body for internal injuries and start the right course of treatment for better care and recovery.
