Meet the 'rapid move' pathway
Will you soon undergo an operation or exam at our hospital that requires a short stay? If so, you might be taken post-procedure to our new Rapid Move Unit, which allows you to go home faster. If you are eligible, your physician will inform you about the pathway during your consultation.
See the video to get to know our ‘rapid move process’.
