  • Blood/Plasma Transfusion: Procedures that involve giving blood intravenously to replace lost blood, either during surgery or as a result of a serious injury.
  • Isolation Unit: A separate unit that helps our doctors provide high-quality care to infectious patients while minimizing exposure risks to other patients.
