Progressive Care
| Progressive Care consists of four 16-20 bed units. The units are designed to care for patients with disorders similar to those cared for in ICU but the degree of severity allows for less intense concentration of technology and nursing personnel. The units handle long-term ventilators and stable selective vasoactive drips. Nursing support available to the patient consists of frequent observation and continuous cardiac monitoring by telemetry. |
