Doha: The Ambulatory Care Center (ACC), part of the Hamad Medical Corporation’s (HMC) group of hospitals located in Hamad Bin Khalifa Medical City, recently expanded its intensive care unit (ICU) capacity to 10 rooms. The unit provides critical medical and surgical care support for other hospitals located nearby, which ensures easier access for critical care patients.
Dr Khalid Al Jalham, Director of the Ambulatory Care Center, explained that the ACC location and set up made it an ideal choice to enhance HMC’s critical care capacity. “Based on a critical needs assessment, a strategic decision was made to create a small ICU facility in our facility last July. This ensured there was capacity for the influx of critical care cases that had to be diverted from other facilities, several of which were designated as mainly COVID-19 facilities. The service was so successful that a corporate decision was taken to establish an expanded facility to cater for the growing demand for critical care services across our system.”
