Sub-acute care
Within the frail care centre, six beds are registered with the Department of Health and the Board of Healthcare Funders for
sub-acute (step-down) care. This registration allows our patients to claim the costs from their medical aid provider, subject to
prior admissions approval.
The sub-acute facility caters for patients who no longer need the acute care of a traditional hospital, but are not yet well
enough to care for themselves at home e.g. following a heart attack, hip replacement or episode of emphysema.
