HDU

High Dependency Unit (HDU)

BRB Hospitals Limited has Modern and latest equipment base High Dependency Unit (HDU).

The High Dependency Unit (HDU), or step-down, progressive and intermediate care unit, is for patients who require a higher level of observation, treatment and nursing care than that offered in a general ward but do not require admission into intensive care.

For those moved into the HDU from the intensive care facilities, this move is often seen as a welcome sign of progress as it is means that the patient is improving, gradually establishing more normal eating and sleeping patterns, and is a step closer to going home.
