Intermediate care is a medical service that provides care to patients who require special care but do not need to be in an intensive care unit (ICU). It is an intermediate level between the ICU and a regular hospital ward.
Intermediate care offers a number of benefits, including more intensive and specialized medical care, constant monitoring of vital signs, administration of intravenous medications, and greater availability of medical and nursing staff.
Our intermediate care unit is designed to care for patients who have undergone complex surgeries, patients with chronic conditions requiring constant monitoring, patients with respiratory or cardiac failure, and those who need intensive postoperative care but do not require an ICU.
The duration of treatment with intermediate therapy varies depending on each patient's individual needs. It can range from a few days to several weeks, depending on the severity of the condition and the response to treatment.
The main difference between intermediate care and intensive care is the level of care and monitoring. In intermediate care, patients receive more intensive care than during a regular hospital stay, but they do not require the same constant monitoring and invasive procedures performed in an ICU. Intermediate care is appropriate for patients who are stable but still require intensive medical care.
