Description

About this unit

7MHC is a 46-bed unit that cares for cardio-thoracic patients after surgery. We specialize in both cardiac, pulmonary and transplant care. Our primary patient populations are post-operative coronary artery bypass (CABG), cardiac valve surgeries, lung surgeries, heart, and lung transplant, and VAD patients (an artificial heart pump). We admit post-surgical patients' day of surgery, after the cardiovascular recovery unit or from the Cardiothoracic ICU (CTCC) depending on their procedure and clinical needs. If a patient needs intensive care, they are transferred to CTCC and return to us when their condition has stabilized. Our patients are very complex and require medical, physical, and emotional support.
