The Medical-Surgical Unit is where most patients spend the night at Memorial Hospital. Our unit has up to 35 beds of which most are semiprivate.
Private rooms are available for patients requiring isolation or special treatments.
Our nursing staff has a wide variety of training and experience. Because we treat everyone from infants to elderly patients, we encourage our nurses to be lifelong learners along with taking classes in current medical procedures and technology. Although Memorial Hospital's nurses manage highly technical and complex care situations, it is often the nurse's kind word, gentle touch, calming smile, or silent presence that make a real difference to our patients. Nursing care is based upon respect for the dignity and worth of every individual. We believe that each patient has the right to receive quality care based on individual needs and age.
