The M-Care Multi-Disciplinary Team
Professional care for patients is our priority
The nursing staff at the nursing station is there to assist with daily functions and ward requirements regarding patient care. M-Care nursing staff are all qualified staff and have adequate training to see to your interests. Please do not feel offended when you ask the nursing personnel for help and they escalate the request to the sister. Nurses do not have the same authority as the sisters. It does not mean that they cannot assist you. At M-Care we provide more personnel than legally required.

- Nursing Student
- Care Workers
- Community Health Sister
- Doctor’s Rounds
- Dietician
- This person is the head of the ward. He/she will assist you with almost any medical request and will be able to coordinate your care to assist with your healing process. A sister is also the only person allowed to dispense your medication.
- We allow nursing students to obtain practical experience at our hospital. They are not involved in your therapeutic care, and do not have access to your confidential documents.
- Their tasks vary and change. They might be asked to help and monitor a patient 24/7, or assist with patient bed preparation or performing small tasks.
- Fast access to the physician is not always possible. For minor problems we have appointed a sister who will do telephonic follow-ups and assist you in this regard. We walk the extra mile, by phoning our patients after discharge, following up to see how our patients are coping and how they are reacting to the medication. Our community health sister gives feedback to the doctors and nursing managers. M-Care personnel have your best interest and recovery at heart. Remember – we really care.
