 - The Private Ward

Barnaclinic+ + has a comfortable, modern Private Ward equipped with the most-advanced hospital technology. We can look after any type of patient, even those with the most complex disorders.

All rooms are individual and have a private bath and a supplementary bed for a family member or companion. They have been designed to ensure maximum maximal patient comfort and safety and make it easy for health care workers to look after their patients in a sterile, hygienic environment. The furniture is ergonomically designed and the beds have electric controls that enable patients to control their   positions and movements. The beds have mechanisms that allow the nurse to change positions rapidity when necessary in an emergency.

The baths are adapted to facilitate the care and personal hygiene of patients. They are designed with nonskid materials and are big enough to allow a companion or aide to help the patient bathe when necessary.

The rooms have a slim, vertically adjustable table that the patient can move comfortably. This lets patients reach their closets and drawers, eat seated if desired and  read, write, use a computer, etc.

Barnaclínic has two rooms equipped with air beds with pressure control designed to improve rest, facilitate mobilization and avoid complications in patients who need long rest periods.

The rooms are equipped with a call button, an intercom to speak directly with nursing staff, an emergency alarm in the bathroom, individual temperature control, nightlight, work surfaces for the patient and their companion, sofa bed, television, telephone and Internet access.

If the patient requires transfer to a special care unit, the private room is still reserved for the patient and their family or companion if so desired, as long as medical demands permit this.

“The barnaclinic+ rooms are cosy, calm and comfortable, and are ideal for patients to recover in”



 - The Private Ward staff

Barnaclínic provides comprehensive health care in collaboration with the internationally-renowned Hospital Clinic of Barcelona, whose physicians form our consultant team.

The Private Ward is overseen by an experienced senior consultant, which guarantees that the patient and their family can see the Doctor at any time they wish. The senior consultant is responsible for coordinating all the processes involved in complex diseases, which often involve consultants from different specialties. Patient’s always are seen and informed by their personal attending physician, supported by the senior consultant of the private ward.

Our team of nurses are selected for their experience, training and skills. They can offer you personal care of the highest quality to ensure your recovery, working in tandem with your medical team. Our nurses are trained to offer customized care based on the latest medical protocols for each individual disorder.


 
 - Medical information

All patients are personally informed of all medical information affecting their case by their attending physician. Any doubts or clarifications can be solved by consulting the senior consultant of the Private Ward.
