Arriving at our Emergency Unit
Emergency care is prioritised by how ill you are, not by when you arrived. This is how it goes.
Triage
A trained triage nurse assesses you as soon as you arrive and assigns a clinical priority. The most critically ill and injured patients are seen first, which is why waiting times can vary.
Assessment and imaging
An emergency physician examines you and orders any tests needed. Because radiology is on site, x-rays, CT and ultrasound can be done without transferring you elsewhere.
Treatment or referral
You are treated in the unit, referred to a specialist on call, or admitted. If surgery is required, our theatre complex is in the same building.
Accounts and medical aid
Treatment is never held up for paperwork. Bring your ID and medical aid card if you have them, and admissions will sort out authorisation afterwards.
- ID, passport or birth certificate
- Medical aid card, if you are a member
- A list of current medication, if you have one to hand
