The Queen's Medical Center at Hale Pulama Mau is a 40-bed general medical unit consisting of both private and semi -private rooms. The focus of care is effective discharge planning for our adult, long term stay patients who may have complex medical and social service needs. The unit is off-site and a closed unit responsible for its own staffing coverage.
