Isolation Ward
An Isolation Ward is a designated area in a hospital where patients with contagious diseases are kept separate from others. This helps prevent the spread of infections, ensuring that both patients and healthcare workers remain safe. The ward is equipped with specialized facilities and staff trained to handle infectious diseases.
Patients in an Isolation Ward may have conditions like tuberculosis, COVID-19, or other illnesses that require strict precautions. The ward typically has controlled access, and visitors may be limited to reduce the risk of transmission. Proper hygiene and protective equipment are essential in these settings to maintain safety.
