Take a look inside our operating suite

All surgeries, including procedures under local anesthesia with sedation, are performed in our state-of-the-art operation suite.

This operation suite features two fully equipped operating rooms and a spacious, comfortable recovery room.

Hospital-level safety in a private clinic

At Global Care Clinic, patient safety is our top priority. We have made significant investments in advanced ventilation systems and cutting-edge equipment to provide our patients with the highest level of care in an ultra-safe environment.

As the only private clinic in Limburg, we comply with the strictest safety standards for private clinics (S3 standard), as mandated by the Belgian Society for Private Clinics and certified by the international inspection company HEX GROUP.

But what does this mean for you as a patient?

1. Optimal air purification for maximum sterility

Our advanced laminar airflow ventilation system ensures an ultra-sterile surgical environment. This system:

✅ Replaces the entire air volume in the operating room every minute with sterile air.
✅ Creates a slight overpressure, preventing bacteria from entering.

💡 Did you know?

Our air quality meets the ISO 1446-1 Class 5 standard, the same strict standard used in the operating rooms of Gasthuisberg (University Hospital Leuven).

🔹 Why is this important?

A sterile environment significantly reduces the risk of:

• Wound infections and hospital-acquired bacteria (such as MRSA).
• Capsular contracture in breast augmentation procedures.

Thanks to these measures, the risk of infection is even lower than in a public hospital, where primarily sick patients are treated.

2. Advanced electrical safety

🔹 Did you know?

The S3 standard includes comprehensive electrical safety regulations. In Belgium, only a few private clinics meet these standards – and we are one of them.

Are you undergoing general anesthesia? Then an S3-compliant operating environment is a must for your safety.

3. Emergency power supply for maximum security

We have a high-capacity emergency generator that ensures our operating suite remains fully powered for at least 24 hours in the event of a power outage.

🔹 What happens if the power goes out during your surgery?

During an operation, vital equipment and systems such as:

• Operating room doors
• Surgical lighting
• Patient elevators
• Monitoring devices

… rely entirely on electricity. Without an emergency power supply, these systems could fail in the event of a power outage, posing serious risks.

💡 Extra safety measure:

Our emergency power system includes a battery backup, ensuring an uninterrupted power supply while the generator starts up. This means you won’t even notice if a power outage occurs.
