What does the future hold? As Pindara celebrates 45 years of service to the community, plans are underway to expand and refurbish the Pindara Emergency Centre, which when opened in 1987 was the first private emergency department in Australia. Today, it is still one of the busiest private centres in Queensland and the department’s stable team has delivered after-hours and emergency care around the clock 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 52 weeks of the year, to generations of Gold Coasters. Generations of Gold Coasters have also been born in the Pindara maternity unit, which continues to be the busiest private unit on the Coast. Years of experience, expert obstetric care and luxury accommodation and service provide the new mother with the best support possible as she gives birth and learns to care for her baby. Partners are welcome to stay at Pindara, and all maternity rooms are equipped with sofa beds, for that reason. For those wanting a super special luxury experience, Pindara Maternity offers special Regal Suite accommodation packages that include an automatic upgrade to the Palazzo Versace hotel. Premature babies or those with special needs at birth are cared for in the unit’s Special Care Nursery. The next decade for Pindara will see it continue to grow in size, complexity and international significance as it builds a reputation as a centre of excellence in neurosurgery and spinal surgery. Pindara is well on the way to achieving this status after taking a leading role in important international research into lower back pain in partnership with the International Consortium of Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM). Important day services including oncology, renal dialysis and rehabilitation will provide much needed services for those with special needs and a new mental health service will be opened in Southport, on the site vacated by the relocation of Allamanda Private Hospital. Experience, quality, care, comfort, luxury and the latest technology – Pindara Private Hospital offers it all, along with the convenience of free parking. 45TH ANNIVERSARY 20 Pindara Magazine 2016
