Crittenden Community Hospital's 42-bed medical/surgical/pediatric unit provides quality care for patients of all ages with a wide range of acute and/or chronic illnesses. A Progressive Care Unit provides more intensive care for those patients who may be more acutely ill. Cardiac Telemetry monitoring is also available for those patients who may not need to be in PCU but still require their heart to be monitored.
Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses, Nurse Assistants, Nurse Externs, and Ward Clerks provide excellent nursing care 24 hours a day. Nurses on the medical/surgical/pediatric unit have a wide range of expertise. They have certifications in Advanced Cardiac Life Support, Pediatric Advanced Life Support, and Neonatal Resuscitation Program. Some staff members have been employed here for 20-30 years, which says a lot for our hospital. We treat our patients like family. We have a small nurse to patient ratio to assure quality and safe patient care.
Here at Crittenden Community Hospital we provide the highest quality of care for the services we offer!
