Patient Care Type: Innovation unit which provides the highest quality care to patients on the stroke/cerebrovascular, epilepsy, and general neurology services. Our unit is part of the Joint Commission certified stroke center ys Campus. Within the epilepsy practice, patients undergo continuous video EEG monitoring for seizure disorders. General neurology patients present with a variety of acute or chronic health problems, often with multiple comorbidities to be managed.

Complex discharge planning is often required to return these patients to the community. General medical and neurosurgical overflow patients may also be cared for on this unit.

Nursing practice is advanced by neuroscience specialty orientation and curriculum, a portion of the Fundamentals of Critical Care Nursing program, and basic ECG classes.
