Three ICUs, 54 beds, intensivists on site 24x7.
Critical care is where Kainos began, and it remains the hospital's backbone: three intensive care units with 54 beds, a 1:1 nursing ratio, and critical care doctors physically present around the clock — not on call from home.
The results speak plainly. ICU survival at Kainos is 89% against a national average of 57%. Unusually for the region, family members are allowed to visit the ICU at fixed hours, because we believe seeing a loved one matters to recovery.
Our consultants publish their clinical experience in Kainos Insights, a peer case-based learning journal. Recent work from this team includes Paediatric ARDS ventilation, paraquat-poisoning ICU care and sewage-contaminated near-drowning on VV-ECMO.
