Critical Care Medicine at Providence Medical Group
Our highly trained intensivists are experts in the needs of critically
ill patients and continuously manage the treatment and progress of each
patient. In the past, patients would wait for their primary care physician
to visit once each day, either before or after office hours. Because our
intensivists are onsite or immediately available 24/7, they round on patients
as often as needed and are available to respond to changes in a patient's
condition. While an intensivist takes the lead when you are in the Critical
Care Unit, it is a team effort with your personal physician remaining
informed and involved.
