Jordan Daily – Al-Kindi Hospital in Jabal Al-Hussein, Amman, launched its upgraded Emergency Department, marking a significant milestone in healthcare services. This department operates 24/7, providing vital medical care to patients with a focus on rapid response and top-quality emergency services.
Equipped with state-of-the-art medical devices and staffed by highly skilled doctors and nurses, the department is designed to handle all types of urgent medical cases in accordance with global standards.
The Emergency Department benefits from a dedicated and easily accessible entrance, allowing patients to arrive swiftly from multiple routes. The central location of Al-Kindi Hospital in Amman further facilitates rapid access for those in need of emergency treatment.
The department is fully equipped to handle a wide range of emergency cases, from accidents and injuries to medical emergencies such as cardiac events and resuscitations. It features specialized rooms, including a triage room for assessing patient conditions, a minor surgery room for procedures requiring local anesthesia, and a casting room for treating fractures and orthopedic cases. Additionally, there is a dedicated pediatric emergency unit, designed to care for children from newborns to 12-year-olds, as well as a women’s emergency section, ensuring privacy and comfort for female patients.
Al-Kindi Hospital follows the internationally recognized Canadian Triage and Acuity Scale (CTAS) to prioritize patients based on the severity of their condition rather than their arrival time. This ensures that critical cases receive immediate attention, while less urgent cases are monitored until appropriate treatment can be provided.
Patients are advised to seek emergency care for conditions such as chest pain, shortness of breath, severe abdominal pain, chronic or sudden headaches, injuries requiring stitches, bone fractures, confusion, loss of consciousness, balance problems, allergic reactions with swelling, numbness in limbs, irregular heartbeat, seizures, severe vomiting, blood in stools, or suspected overdoses.
The hospital’s fleet of modern ambulances is equipped with advanced life-saving equipment, including oxygen, monitors, and emergency medications, operated by trained paramedics capable of providing on-the-spot emergency care.
Al-Kindi Hospital is a private institution offering a comprehensive range of medical services. It hosts specialized centers for bariatric surgery, cosmetic surgery, vascular surgery, fertility treatments, lithotripsy, interventional radiology, cancer screening (including breast cancer), organ transplantation, cardiac catheterization, open-heart surgery, and gastrointestinal endoscopy. The Emergency Department further enhances the hospital’s commitment to offering world-class healthcare to the community.
