Streamlined admission
Understanding the urgency inherent in emergency situations, our streamlined admission process aims to minimise waiting times to ensure all emergency care patients receive timely care whether dealing with minor injuries or complex medical procedures.
Our comprehensive approach to acute medical care begins with initial assessment in our triage section followed by treatment by the emergency team in order of urgency. Patients may be treated and discharged or once stabilised, admitted to our private hospital for more detailed assessment or extended treatment.
At Sydney Adventist Hospital we will always provide our patients with the best possible care. In some instances, this will mean transferring patients to another health facility. We will do this to ensure you, or your loved one, has access to the care and treatment you need, in a facility that is equipped specifically to care for your condition.

The Emergency Care department is bolstered by direct access to the acute care hospital with its comprehensive services.
