Whether you receive inpatient or outpatient care, you are the most important
person at McKenzie. Your care is personal, because we see you not as a
collection of symptoms or a disease, but as a member of our community
and our goal is to assist you to improve your health.
As a patient in the hospital, you will be respected and the care you receive
will be delivered with compassion. The entire medical team at McKenzie
Health System is here for one purpose – to do everything possible
to aid in your successful recovery. We are staffed with an elite group
of physicians who are onsite 24/7 to provide emergency care as well as
inpatient care. This hospitalist service allows your primary care physician
to focus on your needs and collaborate with the hospitalist physician
to provide you with the highest quality of care.
The hospitalist will manage all of your care while you are an inpatient
and will ensure that your primary care physician receives information
regarding your hospital stay. If your care requires additional management,
our telehealth intensivist providers can be consulted to work with you,
your hospitalist, and your care team to provide specialized care close to home.
Inpatient care may include:
Medical/surgical care
Observation care
Pediatric care
Monitored bed/telemetry services
Transitional/swing bed services
All tests, X-Rays and treatments are ordered by your doctors and you have
a right to discuss these with your doctor.
Equum Medical – Acute Care Telehealth
McKenzie Health System has taken steps to bring specialty care to the hospital
campus. What does this mean for the community? It means, in more cases,
patients can remain close to family and friends while they receive treatment
and recover. This is being done through a partnership with Equum Medical.
Equum Medical's Multi-Specialty Telehealth service provides intensivists
who are board-certified physicians trained to care for critically ill
patients. Their mission is to deliver comprehensive remote consultative
healthcare across various medical subspecialties, enhancing access to
specialized care, optimizing resource utilization, and reducing unnecessary
transfers and care delays. Through standardizing care protocols, reducing
unnecessary transfers, and avoiding delays in care due to lack of access,
Equum Medical provides expert care with diagnostic testing and treatment
options for patients. This approach enables emergency departments to improve
patient outcomes, reduce wait times, and enhance the overall quality of care.
We are dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of hospital
care available. After all, you are the reason we are here!
