You may have private health insurance that you would like to use while you are in hospital. Learn more about why everyone benefits with private health insurance.

If you or someone you know is going to hospital, it's also important to be aware of the risks of Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs), and how to prevent them, as they are an ever-present factor in every health system. My Stay in Hospital provides a range of information on how this risk can be reduced.

We do our best to ensure our hospitals maintain a high standard of safety.
