By GlobalDataNemours Children’s Health will station two hospitalists at Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital-University Campus to ensure round-the-clock medical coverage.
These hospitalists will handle medical complexities and work towards maintaining patient stability.
In addition, another hospitalist will divide their time between Brooks and Wolfson Children’s Hospital, enhancing the continuity of care.
In a related initiative, Brooks Rehabilitation and UF Health Jacksonville will appoint a medicine and rehabilitation physician to manage patient care at Brooks’ inpatient and Paediatric Day Programme.
This physician will collaborate with therapy and nursing teams to address recovery challenges, such as muscle tone and spasticity, and facilitate successful transitions back to home environments.
The partnership also enables access to a broader network of Nemours Children’s and the University of Florida subspecialists for consultations.
Brooks Rehabilitation nurses will undergo intensive training at Wolfson Children’s Hospital, including the Transition from Adults to Paediatrics course, to align with the paediatric care standards set by both Brooks and Wolfson Children’s Hospital.
The training will include multiple shadowing phases at Wolfson Children’s, starting with respiratory care.
