As your needs dictate, you may also meet with various members of our care team. This team may include our Hospitalist, dietitian, physical therapist, speech therapists, respiratory therapist, or pharmacist. Our case managers and discharge planners will meet with you to help set up a safe discharge plan as warranted. Our staff is dedicated to providing excellence in healthcare services, with an emphasis on giving each patient a highly-personalized level of care that is the hallmark of our community hospital. Intensive Care Unit The Intensive/Progressive Care Unit (ICU/PCU) focuses on the care of critically ill or injured patients who need to be closely monitored by specially skilled and educated nurses. Tri-State’s ICU/PCU is a four-bed Critical Care unit that is also able to monitor six additional beds with Telemetry (remote) cardiac monitoring system. The state-of-the-art cardiac monitoring system continuously monitors a patient’s cardiac rhythm, and can also continuously monitor blood pressure, temperature, and specific heart pressures that are important in determining treatment. The ICU/PCU has specialty patient beds that assist in turning and early ambulation and also have skin protection surfaces. The nursing staff in the ICU/PCU/Telemetry Units are trained in basic life support, advanced cardiac support, and many are credentialed as Certified Critical Care Nurses. Families of ICU/PCU/Telemetry Unit patients can remain close in the comfortable and private waiting room adjacent to the unit. The nursing staff strives to keep family members informed of the patient’s condition and encourages visitation whenever possible. What is a Hospitalist? Hospitalists are medical physicians who specialize in the care of hospitalized patients. They partner with your primary care provider to provide you with the ultimate care during your hospital stay. Some advantages to the Hospitalist Program are: Hospitalists are available at Tri-State 24 hours a day, 7 days a week Hospitalists are on-site throughout the day Timely diagnostic interpretations to ensure there’s no delay in medical decision making Prompt and appropriate communication with your primary care physician during your hospital stay to ensure a smooth transition to follow-up care What We Do Hospitalist physicians provide a number of vital services at Tri-State Memorial Hospital, depending on what would best serve the needs of the patient, including: Care for patients who are admitted through the Emergency Department Admission and care of patients who are admitted by their primary care physicians to the hospital Consultations for medical conditions for patients under sub-specialty care (such as an Orthopedic Surgery patient) Transfers from facilities outside of Tri-State Memorial Hospital’s service area Hospitalists services are provided to patients 18 years of age or older If your primary care physician utilizes Hospitalist services for your inpatient admission, you can be confident that your primary care physician will be informed of the details of your stay – from admission through discharge.
