2 North/Progressive Care is a 33-bed medical-surgical and progressive care combined unit providing care for adult patients with a diverse range of acute medical conditions. Our patient population commonly includes pneumonia, COPD exacerbations, heart failure, chest pain, stroke, acute kidney injury, diabetes-related complications, electrolyte imbalances, infections, and other complex medical diagnoses. As the highest level of inpatient care at our hospital, our nurses develop strong clinical judgement through early recognition of changes in patient condition, close collaboration with providers, and timely coordination of transfers when a higher level of care is needed.

Our nurses work alongside physicians, respiratory therapy, rehabilitation services, care management, pharmacy, and other interdisciplinary team members to deliver coordinated, patient-centered care.
