Linda
Castner, RN, CCRN |
Our ICU is an 11-bed multi-specialty critical
care unit. From heart attack and stroke,
to severe respiratory insufficiency and
overwhelming infection, each patient has
unique needs.
Our staff of nurses, doctors, respiratory
therapists and other medical support personnel
provides special around-the-clock attention
for patients with life-threatening conditions,
providing peace of mind for patients and
their families.
Each room is equipped with state-of-the-art
monitoring equipment to provide constant
surveillance of the ever-changing needs
of the patient in the ICU.
In addition to our high tech side, we strive
to meet the human and caring needs of our
patients and families. Each room in the
ICU is equipped with a message board that
lists all nurses and other staff who are
responsible for the patient’s care
each day, along with any procedures or tests
that the patient will be undergoing. This
allows family to be aware of what is happening
and provides a basis for interactions with
the patient and the hospital staff.
Eight of the nurses hold advanced certifications
in Critical Care Nursing.
