CAMPAIGN PRIORITY: Clark Center for Critical Care Medicine

In keeping with Doylestown Health’s patient-first philosophy and unwavering dedication to patient safety, the Clark Center for Critical Care Medicine will allow us to provide the next level of specialized and intensive care to our most critically acute patients in a soothing environment of care.

Within the third floor of the Cardiovascular and Critical Care Pavilion, Doylestown Health will expand its successful Intensivist Program, a model in which board-certified physicians (intensivists), who specialize in the care of critically ill patients, are available in the ICU around the clock, seven days a week. In frequent collaboration and consultation with medical-surgical colleagues across disciplines, the intensivist designs a personalized and coordinated care plan for every patient. Together with the highly-skilled care teams in the ICU, the intensivist personally oversees daily multidisciplinary rounding that engages the patient (when possible) and their family members in the care plan. Patients in the IMU will receive a higher level of care to allow for close monitoring and provision of comprehensive care in collaboration with the multidisciplinary team.

As a nationally recognized leader in patient safety, Doylestown Hospital’s commitment to this innovative model has already demonstrated improved outcomes for our most vulnerable patients.

“We are grateful to Richard and Angela Clark for sharing our vision of providing a state-of-the-art environment in which we can deliver the highest levels of intensive care and attention with the loving touch that benefits patients and their families.” ~ Les A. Szekely MD, FCCP, DABSM – Medical Director
