The opening of the new
Cardiac Centre at the Ulster
Hospital was in January 2019.
The Cardiac Centre is based
on an Ambulatory Model of
Care and is operational 3 days
per week. It provides
alternative pathways to
admission for cardiac patients
through early access to
specialist assessment,
diagnostics and treatments.
The Cardiac Centre is having positive impact on unscheduled care pressures and admission
avoidance but most significantly it is improving both the patient experience and their outcomes.
Achievements:
January 2019 - December 2019

Ward 6b Ulster Hospital
created 'little baskets of care'
for relatives staying with their
loved one.
On the patient's admission,
relatives were given their
'little basket of care' which
provides them with toiletries
for their own personal use.
