AdventHealth Tampa is the first hospital in the Tampa Bay area to create a dedicated Epilepsy Monitoring Unit (EMU) featuring private rooms solely dedicated to 24/7 video, audio and EEG monitoring of epilepsy patients.
The EMU is staffed around the clock with specially trained nurses and technicians who are led by a team of epileptologists, neurosurgeons and neurophysiologists. Advanced equipment allows staff to closely monitor their patients at all times, whether at the bedside, from the nurse’s station, from the long-term monitoring control room or from custom-built mobile workstations that allow nurses to move from room to room while keeping an eye on multiple patients at once.
