Wellington ICU provides tertiary Intensive Care services for over one million

The ICU is a 24-bed unit providing general intensive care as well as
supporting sub-speciality services including cardiothoracics & cardiology, neurosurgery,
paediatric surgery, and trauma. Each bed space is equipped to provide
either Intensive or High Dependency level care to both medical and surgical
(post-operative) patients. Our service is strongly consultant-led and consultant
ward rounds are performed three times a day on week days (8am, 4pm and 9pm) and
twice a day during the weekend (8am and 9pm).
We admit almost 2000 patients every year of which 40% are elective
(including approximately 600 cardiothoracic patients). Approximately 8% of our admissions
