We admit a vast variety of patient types with ages raging from newborn to young adults. We admit patients from the Emergency Department, directly from the community, as well as scheduled patients coming in for special testing and procedures. We also are licensed inpatient beds to assist with Med/Surg patients as needed. We also work closely as a team with our Emergency Department and float to help as their census needs. This close relationship allows for nurses on the Observation Unit to experience a wide variety of skills and knowledge of diagnoses and develop strong teamwork across units. Floating also gives you the opportunity to build skills and confidence in the care of emergency patients for a smooth transition if you have future plans of working in the Emergency Department.

We see a variety of patient types including: pre/post-operative orthopedic cases, mild traumatic brain injury, 23-hour video EEGs, dehydration, asthma, bronchiollitis, croup, hyperbiliruminium, renal/liver biopsies and cellulitis. Our goal is to treat patients and be able to discharge them within 24 hours. We have the unique opportunity have a physician physically present on the unit to collaborate with to provide the best outcomes for our patients. This variety allows for strong knowledge backgrounds in a wide variety of diagnoses, good critical thinking skills, detail orientated care, and building meaningful connections quickly with patients and families.
