Hospitalist Program

During your inpatient stay, a physician called a hospitalist will manage your care.
Our hospitalists are board-certified physicians in Internal Medicine or Family Medicine who specialize in caring for hospitalized patients.

Role of the Hospitalist in Inpatient Care

• Hospitalists provide continuous, comprehensive inpatient care from admission through discharge.
• Coordinate and manage diagnostic testing, specialty consultations, and treatment plans to ensure high-quality care throughout the hospital stay.
• During your stay and upon discharge, hospitalists share detailed medical records and updates as requested with the patient’s primary care provider to support seamless continuity of care.
• Hospitalists are available 24 hours a day, meet with patients daily, and are available to meet with families upon request.

If you do not have a primary care provider, our hospitalists will ensure you are connected with one before discharge.

Swing Bed Program

Our Swing Bed Program bridges the gap between hospital care and home.
It is designed for patients who no longer need acute hospitalization but would benefit from short-term skilled nursing or therapy before returning home.
