"In the Urgent Care Centre, less critical patients can be quickly assessed, treated and discharged, reducing waiting times and freeing up valuable critical care beds in the main Emergency Department," Nurse unit manager Katushka explains urgent care at Mt Druitt
Further expansion is planned for Mt Druitt in Stage 2 of the project. Staff, patients and carers are currently planning expanded facilities for increased surgical capacity, new dialysis treatment spaces, increased medical imaging and expanded drug health services to meet growing demand.
