Our
Patient and Families
6B is
a 32-bed unit that primarily includes patients admitted to
the Internal
Medicine services of Gastroenterology
(GI/Liver) and General
Medicine . The interdisciplinary team provides care to
patients and families across the adult life-span who are experiencing
acute and chronic episodes of their illness.
Philosophy
of Care
It is our goal to assist the patient
and family in maximizing their level of wellness and functional
ability.
We believe that
- each
of our patients are unique individuals with their own physical,
psychological, cultural and spiritual makeup
- patients
and families come to us with their own perceptions, values,
strengths, weaknesses, and environmental influences
- patient
and family input is critical to providing a holistic approach
to the plan of care
- collaboration
between the patient/family and interdisciplinary care team
provides best quality care
- the
nurse's role is to act as a primary caregiver, planner,
teacher, counselor, liaison and patient advocate
