List of DNB Accreditation Seats

At the Emergency Department of Holy Spirit Hospital, we believe in a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach to care. Our team works closely with specialists from various departments, including surgery, cardiology, neurology, and paediatrics, to ensure that patients receive the most comprehensive treatment, especially in complex or multi-system emergencies. This coordination allows us to tailor our care to the specific needs of each patient, providing expert interventions across multiple medical disciplines.

Once the immediate medical condition is addressed, we also prioritize patient education. Our team takes the time to inform patients about managing their health, preventing further emergencies, and following up on their recovery. We provide clear instructions on what to do after leaving the hospital, and whenever necessary, we coordinate with primary care providers or other specialists to ensure continuity of care and a smooth transition to post-emergency treatment.
