TeleICU


Collaborative support for high acuity, complex patients

Patients who are critically ill have many concurrent and emergent needs throughout their ICU stay and have some of the highest cost impacts in healthcare delivery organizations. Providence TeleICU services enhances support for your local ICU care team, providing access to experienced critical care clinicians, including nocturnal intensivists and 24/7 critical care support.

TeleICU can reduce length of stay in the ICU and the patient’s overall hospital stay through timely, expert, and collaborative support for high acuity, complex patients. Access to critical care expertise to help manage ICU patients can also help patients close to home and avoid transfer to higher-acuity facilities.

"I was very concerned about the transition from an intensivist during the day to TeleICU at night, but after using it I am very satisfied. Great docs make it work!"

"The night staff are really liking the camera connection with the TeleICU. Even early in the program, one nocturnal Clinical Nurse routinely goes room to room around 9pm and rounds together with the Tele-Intensivist. She loves it. Yay!"
