Whether you’re preparing for a planned surgery or facing an unexpected health emergency, hospital admission can feel overwhelming—especially if you’re unsure about the process. This guide is designed to help you understand how hospital admission works in Bangladesh and what to expect, with insights into how Unico Hospitals PLC in Dhaka, Dhanmondi ensures a smooth and supportive experience for every patient.
🏥 Types of Hospital Admissions in Bangladesh
Understanding the kind of admission you require is the first step:
1. Emergency Admission
This occurs during a medical crisis—such as a heart attack, accident, or sudden illness—when immediate care is needed. The Emergency Department (ER) handles all assessments and admits patients as necessary.
2. Planned/ Elective Admission
For scheduled procedures like surgeries, tests, or specialist care. This usually follows an outpatient consultation or referral from a general practitioner.
