General Comments
- 20 beds + 7 vertical spaces, 120 patients/day
- Primary Stroke & Chest Pain Accreditation
- No Trauma
- They don't have an inpatient pediatric unit, but they do see pediatric patients in the ER, and they are pretty high acuity. They transfer those patients out.
- Great physicians/providers in place, very tenured
- External candidates HAVE to have ER Director experience. The ER manager is new to the role, so they need a strong Director for this location. They are in the process of opening a FSED this coming spring that will roll up under this Director as well. Plan is to have a manager onsite at the main campus as well as the FSED that both report to this Director.
