Critical Care Unit (CCU)
A critical care unit, also called an intensive care unit (ICU), is a specialized hospital ward where critically ill or injured patients are provided high-level medical care. In these units, patients are monitored 24 hours a day and are provided treatment using life-saving medical equipment such as ventilators, heart monitors, and other advanced equipment. A team of experienced doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and other medical specialists care for patients in a critical care unit. Patients admitted to a CCU require more intensive and continuous care than general hospital patients.
