BPU treats patients with a variety of general medical and cardiac conditions, as well as elderly patients who may be suffering from illnesses such as dementia. Importantly, this unit is equipped with heightened security measures to ensure confused and wandering patients remain safe at all times. Two isolation rooms are housed within BPU and the hospitals sleep studies program is also conducted from this unit.
Our CCU is the only private coronary care unit between the Sunshine
Coast and Townsville with three dedicated CCU beds and an additional
two high dependency beds. CCU forms part of our Bob Philips Unit and
predominantly treats cardiac patients. These five beds are constantly
monitored with equipment that is compatible and equivalent to that of
Brisbane based hospitals; ensuring continuity of care where
transportation of a patient is required either to or from Bundaberg.
Due to the nature of care that cardiac patients require, coupled with
the extensive centralised monitoring, the CCU facility is of an open
plan design. Once stabilised, we have the ability to step-down the
patients care to BPU.
