The group’s first international site in South Kensington has been designed to support physical and emotional healing in a homelike setting.
Memorial Houston Medical (MhM), a Houston-based post-surgical and rehabilitation hospital, has opened a site in London.
The hospital group, which has expertise in cancer care, complex wound management, orthopaedic recovery, diabetic care, inpatient pulmonary care, cosmetic surgery, and long-term acute care, has opened the new facility on Fulham Road in South Kensington.
The facility has capacity for six inpatients at a time and hosts an in-house GP surgery with rehabilitation treatment rooms, including an exercise area.
It has been designed to support physical and emotional healing in a home-like setting. MhM focuses on prehabilitation and postoperative care as core to treatment which it says is reflected in the environment itself, which has been constructed to accelerate recovery.
“We are proud to have designed MhM’s new London hospital with dignity in mind, from the aesthetics to the treatment programmes,” said Danny Shebaclo, UK business development lead for MhM.
“People should not lower their expectations – from aesthetics to treatment – because they are in a hospital environment; when they are at their most vulnerable, they should, in fact, expect more. That is why we have elevated every detail of the patient experience, from prehabilitation to postoperative care and rehabilitation.”
