| Intensive
Care Unit |
| The
six-bed intensive care unit, which opened in January
1999, provides care to those with critical medical
illnesses and those who have recently undergone
major surgery. Problems seen here include acute
coronary syndromes, respiratory failure, cerebrovascular
accidents, life-threatening infections, trauma,
and a vast array of less commonly seen serious medical
conditions. The unit is staffed by an RMO twenty-four
hours a day with a consulting physician available
on-call. Given the multi-system nature of the illnesses
seen in the ICU, numerous specialists perform daily
rounds here. The unit is equipped with patient monitors,
ventilators, a portable X-ray unit, portable echocardiography,
12-lead ECG machine, and a dialysis machine. |
