Highlights of the unit include: Care for a diverse range of cardiovascular conditions and procedures, including heart attacks, chest pain, angioplasties (PTCA), open-heart surgery, abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA), carotid procedures, thoracic surgeries, and more. A unique patient-centered model where open-heart surgery patients remain in the same room from admission through discharge, allowing caregivers to build stronger patient relationships and continuity of care.
