citizensmemorial.com 13 Second floor: Inpatient care Patients admitted to the hospital stay in one of three types of rooms, based on the level of care required. All units include bariatric rooms with enhanced accessibility features, including wider doors, larger bathrooms and in-ceiling lifts to transfer patients between the bed and restroom safely. The intensive care unit (ICU) provides the highest level of care for the most critically ill patients and offers: ● 16 ICU-capable rooms. The expansion doubles the number of ICU-capable rooms, addressing frequent capacity issues in the former eight-bed ICU. The unit design allows flexibility to use rooms for progressive care unit patients as needed. ● Rooms that are 72% larger, with a restroom in each room. ● Monitoring for all beds. ● A tele-intensivist program with ICU physicians available 24/7 for consultation. ● A staff workstation between every two rooms, providing additional computers and space to monitor patients. The progressive care unit is a step down from the ICU, caring for patients who need close monitoring but not the highest level of critical care. The medical/surgical unit serves patients who require the lowest level of inpatient care, including those staying overnight following surgery. It offers: ● 28 all-private rooms designed for privacy, comfort and healing. ● Rooms that are 36% larger. ● Fully accessible bathrooms. ● Telemetry, a form of cardiac monitoring, available in every room. Third floor: The Birth Place At CMH’s Birth Place, patients complete their labor, delivery, recovery and postpartum (LDRP) care in the same room. This model continues with the expansion, adding nine LDRP rooms, a 50% increase from the current six rooms. Features include: ● Rooms that are 43% larger. ● Triage rooms for patients who need evaluation or care but may not stay for delivery. ● In-unit cesarean section suite. ● Larger nursery and waiting areas. ● Enhanced security features.
