Busamed Hillcrest expands critical care with 22 new ICU & High Care beds
Busamed Hillcrest Private Hospital, along with East Coast Breakfast, has unveiled its newly expanded ICU and High Care Unit.
This marks an important investment in critical care services and increasing the hospital’s capacity to care for patients requiring specialised medical attention and close monitoring.
The expansion builds on the hospital’s existing ICU and High Care offering, introducing 10 additional ICU beds and 12 additional High Care beds.
This increased capacity means more patients with complex and critical medical needs can receive specialised care in a modern, purpose-designed environment.

More capacity when patients need it most
Critical care requires more than advanced equipment.
It requires highly skilled medical professionals working together around the clock to provide careful monitoring, rapid intervention and personalised treatment.
The expanded unit is supported by a dedicated multidisciplinary critical care team, including intensivists, doctors, nurses and allied healthcare professionals.
Among the critical care specialists are Dr Dave Skinner, Dr M Faurie and Dr N Parag, alongside their specialist partners and the wider multidisciplinary team.
Together, the team provides comprehensive care for patients whose conditions require a higher level of medical support and observation.
Designed for specialised critical care
The newly expanded facility combines increased bed capacity with modern infrastructure designed to support the delivery of advanced critical care.
The additional ICU and High Care beds allow Busamed Hillcrest Private Hospital to respond to greater demand while providing patients with access to specialised medical teams in a dedicated critical care environment.
For families, having access to this level of care closer to home can also provide reassurance during some of life’s most challenging moments.
A team-centred approach to patient care
At the heart of the expansion is a commitment to safe, personalised and high-quality care.
From intensivists and doctors to nurses and allied healthcare professionals, the multidisciplinary team works collaboratively to assess patients, monitor their progress and provide treatment tailored to their individual needs.
In critical care, every detail matters and every patient deserves care that combines medical expertise with compassion.
