Life Beacon Bay Hospital is celebrating 15 years of providing exceptional healthcare services to East London and the surrounding community.
Since opening its doors in November 2009, our dedicated team of specialists and staff have been committed to delivering patient-centred, compassionate care, becoming a beacon of hope and care to patients and their families.
We offer a wide range of healthcare services including emergency medicine, maternity, paediatrics, paediatric surgery, haematology, gynaecology, urology, neurosurgery, plastic and reconstructive surgery, spinal orthopaedic surgery and general surgery.
To ensure our services continually meet the needs of the community the hospital has expanded its intensive care unit and added a paediatric intensive care unit as well as having attracted new specialists to its team to ensure that patients receive world-class, integrated care right on their doorstep.
In keeping with building lifelong partnerships with its patients, the hospital prides itself on caring for patients in every stage of their lives — from birth, through childhood and beyond.
“Over the past 15 years we have proudly delivered more than 35,000 babies — sharing in happy moments with new parents and caring for their babies as they grow. Our commitment to the lifelong partnerships we build with our patients can be seen in our patient satisfaction scores — with 95% saying that they would recommend our hospital for care,” hospital manager Lyndee Hartwanger said.
“We offer a variety of specialties with a focus on mother and child services, which enhances our ability to support families from prenatal to postnatal care and beyond. Our first-class team of gynaecologists, paediatricians, paediatric surgeons, paediatric pulmonologist and a paediatric neurologist provides our community with a comprehensive range of specialist care.”
Our recently refurbished maternity unit features a modern and welcoming design, where experienced maternity professionals ensure that every birth is a memorable and positive experience for parents.
The unit offers comfortable accommodation in private and semiprivate rooms, along with two exclusive VIP suites for those seeking a luxurious, hotel-like experience during their stay. Patients who are not medically funded can enquire about the competitive private packages for both natural delivery and caesarean section deliveries.
Additionally, our state-of-the-art neonatal intensive care unit is equipped to provide the highest level of care for newborns requiring specialised treatment. Whether a baby is born prematurely or needs intensive care, the multidisciplinary team delivers compassionate, expert care in a nurturing environment that fosters critical bonding time between parents and their newborns.
For children who require hospitalisation, the paediatric unit offers a safe, peaceful, and healthy environment where children can receive medical care. This unit also includes a specialised paediatric intensive care unit, ensuring that young patients receive the highest level of medical attention.
Life Beacon Bay Hospital provides specialised care tailored to the unique needs of each family. Your health and wellbeing are our top priorities, and we are honoured to be a trusted partner in your healthcare journey.
