About Ward 3C

Ward 3C is a dedicated ward for the majority of Medical Speciality patients. The patients in this ward range from birth to 18 years of age, each with their own specific needs and challenges being treated in this ward. There are 32 beds in the ward for in patients.

We have colour coded zones in ward 3C: yellow, blue, green and orange.

Yellow, blue and green zones are side rooms in ward 3C with en suite facilities.

Orange zone is made up of a 4-bedded bay with shared bathroom facilities.
