Intensive Care and Cardiac Care Unit
The Intensive and Critical Care Unit (ICU/CCU) is located at the north end of the third floor at Lakeview Hospital. The unit is an eight-bed combined coronary/medical/surgical care area that provides intensive nursing care and monitoring.
Most ICU/CCU patient healthcare needs are cardiac related, but other health conditions monitored in this unit include:
- Acute respiratory failure
- Sepsis
- GI Bleed
- Drug overdose
- Diabetic ketoacidosis
- Shock and trauma
- Complex general surgery
- Stroke (Brain Attack)
- Peripheral Vascular Disease
- Post Op Craniotomies
- Complex critically ill patients
The ICU/CCU is staffed by Registered Nurses (RNs), who care for patients according to a 1:1 or 1:2 nurse-to-patient ratio, depending on a patient's severity of illness. Nurses are assigned to patients according to competency, experience and advanced training.
Our Critical Care Team Believes That:
- Patients are the reason we exist. Caring is critical in helping people maintain heath, effect healing, and adapt to stressful experiences.
- Caring involves acts and attitudes of critical thinking and clinical competency.
- Quality nursing care is every patient’s right and every nurse’s responsibility. Quality is the combination of clinical competence and the art of our commitment to caring.
- Clinical competence and professional development are achieved and maintained through continuing education.
- A collaborative practice among healthcare professionals, patients and family members is essential for positive patient outcomes.
