Five star private health facility

- MELOMED TOKAI SPOKESPERS­ON

MELOMED Tokai is a perfect example of how with the right medical practition­ers, a conducive hospital environmen­t can provide a great sense of comfort and peace of mind instead of making people anxious.

Entering Melomed Tokai’s double-volume reception area feels like arriving at a hotel with a “free-flow feeling” carrying through to the curved staircase.

“Melomed Tokai has the look and feel of a five-star facility, from the spacious luxurious wards to the ample natural lighting, expansive scenic views of Cape Town’s mountains, and modern design of interior decoration­s,” says Joe Regal, Facilities Manager at Melomed.

Melomed firmly believes its facilities should not feel or even smell like the traditiona­l hospital, but be an attractive environmen­t. The modern, top-class furnishing­s make patients and visitors feel relaxed and pampered. The artwork depicts the Cape’s fauna and flora, which adds freshness to the interior.

A modern feel has been created for Melomed Tokai with natural light used to a large extent. The wards at Melomed are nothing short of luxurious.

The private wards are in essence luxury suites, individual­ly decorated with beautiful en-suite bathrooms; fully electronic­ally controlled beds, flat screen LCD television­s, telephones, free Wi-Fi, and leather chairs.

The wards and hallways are spacious and uncluttere­d, replete with pause and waiting areas which provide comfort to patients and visitors alike.

The walls in the Paediatric Unit were hand painted by a Cape Town artist, and depicts images of friendly farm animals providing a cheerful atmosphere that is combined with profession­al service and loving care.

The Neonatal Unit has wingback chairs making it easy for mothers to breastfeed and we have comfortabl­e leather recliner chairs in the Paediatric Unit to cater for parents/guardians.

Melomed Tokai has focussed on security and access control for extra safety and patient comfort.
