Cardiac Centre
Calvary Health Care Tasmania has recognised the need in Tasmania for a cardiac centre which fully addresses the advanced technology now required for best practice investigation and management of disorders of the heart and vascular system.
As in all areas of medicine, a holistic approach is essential for such diagnosis and management. That is, the needs of the individual patient, appropriate investigations, treatment in customised ward areas, and rehabilitation, must all be closely inter-linked.
Located at the Lenah Valley Campus the Calvary Cardiac Centre provides comprehensive care in a thoughtful, caring environment. On-site specialists, a cardiac investigations unit, specialised ward areas, and a cardiac catheter laboratory all combine to provide a centre of excellence.
