Additional Unit Information: |
Martha's Vineyard Hospital is a critical access hospital, the ICU has a variable census. The planned ICU staffing is fully staffed to care for Intensive Care patients 24/7, due to low census in the ICU it is closed the majority of the time and nurses are on call and/or cross trained to handle work in other areas of the hospital.
|
|
|
Other Team Members: |
There is a provider on the inpatient units during the day and part of the evening shift. The Emergency Department has a physician on duty 24/7 and responds to any emergencies when the hospitalist is not present. |
|
|
There are many variables to consider in establishing safe, efficiently staffed hospital units. Patient care units differ based upon the types
of patients cared for on a given unit, and the way in which care is organized and delivered there. Education and experience levels of unit
staff, support from nurse educators and nurse managers also factor into unit staffing decisions, as does the unique characteristics and mission of each
hospital. It is also important to look at patient outcomes (including fall rates, pressure ulcer rates, and Hospital Compare measures related
to heart attack care, heart failure care, pneumonia care and surgical care) in the Performance Measures section of PatientCareLink.
