By GlobalDataA newly established adult critical care unit offers specialised facilities for the resuscitation of patients facing life-threatening emergencies, including septic shock, cardiac arrest, respiratory failure, and cardiogenic shock.
The spacious private treatment areas are equipped to support advanced therapies such as bedside continuous dialysis, cardiopulmonary bypass, and other vital life-saving technologies.
Mount Sinai Hospital ED medical director Kristen Kelly said: “We are committed to providing excellent and equitable care for all of our patients, and our new critical care space was designed with our sickest patients in mind to ensure high-quality care and the most efficient and effective use of our space to optimise both patient and staff experience.”
The final phase will include a unified triage area for patients arriving both independently and via ambulance. The revamped triage process improves patient registration and flow while also enhancing privacy for patients and their families.
Staff will assess patients’ conditions immediately following registration, thereby reducing the time spent in the waiting room.
