Emergency room

Interventional Recovery Unit
Pre-admission testing and procedure preparation are performed on the Interventional Recovery Unit. Patients also stay on this unit for same-day recovery after a cardiac catheterization.
Open-heart Recovery
Immediately after open-heart surgery, patients stay in the open-heart recovery area (located in the critical care unit) where nurses continually assess and evaluate their status.
The typical length of stay in the open-heart recovery area is less than 24 hours.
Step-Down Unit
After staying in the open-heart recovery unit, patients move to the step-down unit where electronic monitors at each bedside enable constant monitoring.
This unit is also a step-down or observation area for patients who have undergone invasive cardiology procedures or are having heart attack symptoms.
Telemetry Units
Patients with a secondary heart diagnosis or a known heart problme may be cared for on a medical telemetry unit where their heart health is monitored while their primary medical problems are treated.

The team of nurses and support staff on the cardiac unit are specially trained to care for patients with heart problems. They have the skill, training and compassion to make your recovery smooth.
Outpatient Areas

The rehabilitation gym is located at Genesis-Bethesda, where heart experts gently guide patients through exercises to strengthen the heart.
