Booth Memorial Hospital

About Booth Memorial Hospital

Booth Memorial Hospital in Cape Town operates as a specialized 100-bed sub-acute, post-acute, and rehabilitation facility. The hospital does not have an Emergency Unit, Intensive Care Unit (ICU), or specialized surgical and maternity departments. Instead, it functions strictly as a step-down institution that accommodates patients referred from major tertiary hospitals or attending physicians. Medical services focus primarily on physical and neurological rehabilitation for individuals recovering from strokes, joint replacements, amputations, and long-term illnesses. Furthermore, the hospital provides specialized sub-acute step-down care for chronic, terminal, and palliative patients, including dedicated management for individuals with HIV/AIDS and Tuberculosis (TB).
