Two of the four bed Acute Care Unit at SIMS Medical Center

Acute Care Unit is a four bed facility with a work station. Shown here are beds 1 and 2.  This area is used by Nursing, Respiratory Care, Occupational Therapy Assistants, Physical Therapist Assistants, Radiography, and for introducing basic skills to CNA students from a local high school.  

Patient on 'Vent in Acute Care at SIMS Medical Center

The patient shown is recovering in Acute Care Unit Bed 2.   It would not be uncommon to walk into a unit and find "relatives" visiting the patient. 

Part of Total Application Scenario (TAS) is to provide the same situations encountered in actual clinical experiences. 

New workstation in Acute Care at SIMS Medical Center

Just as in a "real" hospital, our students have to answer the phone, complete paperwork and will soon be using our new SIMS Medical Patient Information System.  That system will allow students and faculty to input progress notes directly into the patients electronic chart, pull up X-rays and find the most recent lab reports.
