The site navigation utilizes arrow, enter, escape, and space bar key commands. Left and right arrows move across top level links and expand / close menus in sub levels. Up and Down arrows will open main level menus and toggle through sub tier links. Enter and space open menus and escape closes them as well. Tab will move on to the next part of the site rather than go through menu items.
Investing to enhance our emergency and critical care facilities will help Providence keep pace with our community need, providing the best care to all those who choose Providence for care.
With population in Oregon growing, the need for more emergency department beds and critical care beds has become increasingly important. Our health care system needs to increase capacity to meet the needs of our patients. Additional equipment and updated, flexible floor plans would enable nurses and doctors to provide even better care.
Investments in our emergency and critical care units will ensure excellent medical care is available when you or your neighbor need it.
New equipment
New patient monitors will ensure seamless care and automatic monitoring of patients wherever they are in the facility. Exterior utility hook-ups will allow expanded capacity in case of a natural or manmade disaster or another pandemic.
Friendlier and flexible spaces
Treatment spaces will be made uniform, so caregivers will find tools and supplies in the same place in every room. Senior-friendly designs will make the emergency department easier for seniors and their loved ones to navigate, and a large flexible care zone will better serve pediatric patients and patients experiencing behavioral health challenges.
Additional rooms
Adding rooms and revamping some current rooms will allow more patients to receive care while also reducing wait times.
