Hospitalists

If you do not have a primary care physician, while you are in the hospital you will be seen by a hospitalist – a special member of our medical staff. These board-certified physicians and certified nurse practitioner manage the care of hospitalized patients in coordination with specialists. They will see you only while you are in the hospital. They do not provide follow-up care or have their own practice.

During your stay, the hospitalist will oversee your daily care, including ordering and reviewing tests, managing medications, coordinating therapy and other care, and working with case managers to create a plan for your discharge from the hospital. When you’re ready to leave the hospital, they will coordinate your ongoing care with a primary-care physician or clinic.
