Patient-care units for trauma patients
"Ward" Care
When your loved one is ready to come to the patient-care units (wards), this means that they do not need the ICU and are more medically stable. On a ward, patients are cared for by nurses who look after 3 or 4 patients during the day and 5 or 6 patients at night.
Most Sunnybrook trauma patients are cared for on C5, which is the specialized trauma ward, located on the 5th Floor of C-Wing of the hospital.
However, your loved one may be cared for on other patient-care units in the hospital, such as D5, D6 and C6. The teams on C5 and the other patient-care units are experts in caring for patients with serious injuries and helping them progress in their journey towards recovery.
