Day hospital
With the rise of outpatient surgery, our day hospital has 29 beds dedicated to this type of surgery, as well as digestive explorations and various chemotherapy and other cures.
The day hospital of the El Yosr Internationale clinic in Sousse, Tunisia, receives, after agreement from the attending physician (and the surgeon), patients for examinations, procedures or medical or surgical care and treatment who, thanks to the evolution of surgical procedures and anesthesia techniques, require less than 12 hours of hospitalization.
It is open every day from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
It includes 1 day block of ISO7 standard, comprising 3 operating theaters, a pre-anesthesia room for 3 patients and a recovery room with 3 workstations.
