The ICCU is a 19-bed critical care unit located on the 2nd floor of the north building. The patients can be in various stages of recuperation from diagnostic therapies or surgical interventions. We see the highest volume of patients experiencing cardiovascular and pulmonary disease, as well as those recovering from high-risk surgeries. Health care delivery is provided through relationships, with the activities of care organized around the needs and priorities of patients and their families. With the patient and family being the core, the demonstrated practices and values that integrate into the caring and healing environment of relationship-based care include leadership, teamwork, professional nursing, care delivery, resources, and outcomes. We believe that our care practices visibly demonstrate the mission and values of our organization, and extend to clinicians and staff members from other disciplines and services. In addition, the ICCU registered nurses are a vital team member of the Rapid Response and Code Blue team by providing critical care nursing expertise to the bedside of a patient who is having an unforeseen deterioration. We are dedicated to enhancing the professionalism of critical care nursing and promoting standards of practice to serve the needs of our community, by providing a forum for interaction and exchange of ideas.

We pride ourselves on our commitment to providing exceptional care and support to patients in critical condition. Our team is dedicated to utilizing the latest technology, evidence based practices, and compassionate care to ensure the best possible outcomes for every patient. Nurses who join our team have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment where they can make a meaningful difference in the lives of others every day.
