As an alternative to the acute in-patient setting, patients who are initially diagnosed and treated in an Emergency Department may qualify for direct admission to Spaulding Hospital Cambridge. Many patients have multiple diagnoses and require significant clinical intervention, situations which we are well-suited to handle. We have in-house physician coverage on a 24/7 basis, and can provide a wide range of expert acute medical care such as:
| • | Cardiac monitoring |
| • | Chemotherapy administration |
| • | Dialysis |
| • | IV medication administration |
| • | Physical, Occupational and/or Speech therapy |
| • | Psychiatry |
| • | Respiratory therapy |
| • | Radiology, ultrasound and fluoroscopy. |
