SUWASEVANA HOSPITAL
Established in 1985, Suwasevana Hospital has been a pillar of healthcare excellence for almost 40 years. As part of its commitment to offering the best in healthcare, the hospital is expanding its medical services with the introduction of cardiothoracic surgeries, making it the first facility in Kandy to offer these procedures in state-of-the-art modular operating theatres.
EXPANDING HORIZONS Cardiothoracic surgeries – including complex heart and lung procedures – demand the highest standards of care, precision and expertise.
Suwasevana Hospital has always prioritised cutting-edge services; and with the introduction of these advanced surgeries, the hospital is elevating its care capabilities to a new level. This development is a testament to its continued investment in infrastructure and technology.
The hospital now features fully equipped modular theatres, designed to support high-risk and intricate surgeries. These theatres provide modern, sterile and controlled environments that are crucial for complex medical procedures and are designed to minimise infection risks and optimise surgical outcomes.
COMPREHENSIVE CARE The hospital provides a holistic approach to recovery – after undergoing cardiothoracic surgery, patients will be transferred to the cardiac ICU and ward, both of which are equipped for the highest level of post-operative care.
Staffed by highly trained medical professionals, the cardiac ICU ensures personalised treatment during recovery. Meanwhile, the cardiac ward offers a comfortable environment that promotes recovery through optimal medical attention. Staff provide round the clock care, working collaboratively to ensure that each patient’s journey from surgery to recovery is a smooth one.
LATEST IN TECHNOLOGY Suwasevana Hospital conducts diagnostic and therapeutic interventions including cardiac angiograms and stenting procedures. The Canon Cath Lab, the latest in cardiovascular diagnostic technology, allows the hospital to perform high quality cardiac angiography, enabling precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
Offering a comprehensive service portfolio allows the hospital to support patients at every stage of their heart health journey – from early diagnosis to advanced surgery and recovery.
The team of highly skilled cardiologists is experienced in the latest techniques of cardiac care. They work with cardiac surgeons to provide effective, personalised treatment plans for each patient.
AFFORDABILITY To make quality healthcare accessible to all, Suwasevana Hospital offers discounts for government employees with ‘Agrahara’ insurance including a Rs. 50,000 discount on bypass surgeries. This is part of the hospital’s larger mission to provide cost-effective healthcare without compromising on quality.
Suwasevana Hospital is committed to ensuring that all patients have access to the medical care they need. In line with its dedication to affordable healthcare, the hospital will be signing an MOU with the President’s Fund to provide financial support for patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgeries, ensuring that more individuals – regardless of their financial situation – can access necessary life saving treatment.
QUALIFIED STAFF AND STERILE ENVIRONMENT Suwasevana Hospital believes that the success of surgery depends on the technology and facilities used, as well as the expertise of medical professionals involved. Its team of highly qualified and experienced cardiac surgeons, anaesthetists, nurses and specialised support staff is equipped with the skills required to handle the complexities of cardiothoracic procedures.
The modular operating theatres are designed to support the latest in surgical techniques, and a highly sterile environment is maintained to minimise infection risks and ensure optimal outcomes for patients.
From preoperative consultations to post-surgical recovery, the dedicated staff ensures that every step is meticulously planned and executed with the highest quality of care and attention to detail.
