A summary of what to expect when you come to Emergency.
Emergency department presentations at The Alfred and Sandringham Hospital remain at their lowest levels in years as Victorians continue to adhere to the stage-three COVID-19 restrictions and stay home.
In response to the COVID-19 global health crisis, The Alfred has significantly increased its capacity to care for critically ill patients with major expansions to its Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and Emergency Department (ED).
The Alfred has admitted multiple patients with severe cooking-related burns since the state’s stage 3 lockdown came into effect, and specialists are urging people at home to take greater care or risk life-long injuries.
Due to COVID-19, Semester 2 of the EMRC will be delivered completely online!
