Hospitalist Services
Focused patient care.
Hospitalist physicians
focus all of their attention on hospitalized patients. They work closely with
other physicians, therapists and social workers involved in your care. Your
hospitalist will follow up on diagnostic studies and adjust your treatment plan
based on these results. This coordinated approach will ensure a smooth transition
from the hospital.
Hospitalist physicians
are available to answer your questions.
Since the hospitalists work only in the hospital, they are available 24 hours
per day, seven days per week, to provide timely answers to any questions that
you or your family may have, day or evening.
Coordination of care.
Your primary care physician provides your hospitalist with your pertinent medical
and social history. In addition, your primary care physician is kept apprised
of your condition and progress throughout your hospital stay.
We're working as a team
to provide the best possible medical care.
If you need to speak to your hospitalist, ask your nurse to page them. Your
primary care physician also wants to hear about concerns you may have. You may
speak with your primary care physician during your follow-up visit or, for more
pressing concerns, you may contact their office at any time.
