About Our Unit

Our mission in the Medical Telemetry Unit is to utilize and engage all available resources to provide the best possible care to our patients and families.

We are committed to providing a caring and healing environment by establishing a partnership between patients, families and caregivers. This brochure will inform you about the services and key personnel in our unit.

Our goal is to always meet your needs. So if we are not, please let us know.

During Your Stay

We provide patient- and family-focused care. We tailor our approach to meet the specific needs of each patient and family, including any cultural needs. Our team encourages you and your family to participate in your care.

Your care may include continuous cardiac monitoring, frequent assessments, diagnostic testing and blood work that may be done throughout the day and night in order to ensure your well-being. We will make every effort to coordinate timely service.

Our experienced and dedicated nurse management team is available to assist you and your family if you have questions and concerns during and after your hospital stay.
