When Every Second Counts — We’re Ready
At Michoes Medical Center, emergencies don’t wait — and neither do we.
Our Emergency Department operates with speed, precision, and compassion to handle urgent medical and surgical conditions around the clock. Whether it’s a road traffic accident, a fracture, a sudden collapse, or any critical health event, our team is always prepared to respond.
24-Hour Emergency Response
Our hospital provides 24-hour emergency and trauma care, staffed by experienced doctors, nurses, and support teams trained in Advanced Life Support (ALS) and Basic Trauma Care.
We are equipped to stabilize patients quickly and coordinate immediate interventions to save lives and prevent complications.
Emergency services include:
- Accident and trauma care
- Orthopaedic injury management (fractures, dislocations, crush injuries)
- Post-surgical complications
- Severe pain or bleeding
- Stroke and cardiac emergencies
- Acute infections and high fevers
- Pediatric and obstetric emergencies
Orthopaedic Trauma Unit
As a center of excellence in orthopaedics, our Trauma Unit is designed for rapid assessment and treatment of bone and joint injuries.
Our surgeons and nurses specialize in emergency fracture fixation, dislocation reduction, wound care, and stabilization procedures — ensuring timely and expert management for trauma victims.
We handle:
- Road and workplace accidents
- Sports and domestic injuries
- Fall-related fractures
- Industrial or crush injuries
- Acute spinal trauma
Every patient is assessed immediately and treated with a clear goal: to preserve life, prevent disability, and restore function as quickly as possible.
Emergency Surgery
For patients requiring urgent surgical intervention, our operating theatres are always on standby.
We maintain ready-to-activate surgical teams for orthopaedic, general, and minor emergency procedures, supported by an in-house anesthesia and recovery unit.
Ambulance and Patient Transport
We provide ambulance services for both emergency pickups and inter-hospital transfers.
Our ambulances are fitted with life-support equipment and staffed by trained paramedics to ensure patients receive care even before reaching the hospital.

Triage and Fast Response
Upon arrival, every patient is quickly evaluated through our triage system, which prioritizes care based on the urgency of the condition.
Critical patients are moved directly to the resuscitation area for immediate intervention, while less severe cases are stabilized and directed to the appropriate department.
Teamwork and Coordination
Our emergency team works hand in hand with:
- Orthopaedic surgeons
- General physicians and anesthetists
- Radiology and laboratory departments
- Intensive care and inpatient units
This integrated approach ensures that patients receive seamless, continuous care from the moment they arrive until full recovery.
After the Emergency
Once a patient is stabilized, we provide:
- Admission for observation or surgery
- Rehabilitation and physiotherapy (if needed)
- Follow-up appointments for recovery monitoring
- Counselling and family support
Your care doesn’t end when the crisis does — it continues until you’re well again.

Come or call immediately if you experience:
- Severe pain, bleeding, or broken bones
