The Neurosciences ICU consists of 18 patient beds and admits patients with various neurological diseases and conditions. RNs in this unit experience 2:1 patient to nurse ratios. As a nationally recognized Comprehensive Stroke Center, many of the patients in the NSICU are recovering from Ischemic and Hemorrhagic Strokes. Patients come to the NSICU post operatively for craniectomies, craniotomies, carotid endarterectomies, post-carotid stenting, thrombectomies, aneurysmal clippings and coils, invasive spinal surgeries, and many other specialized procedures. The patient population frequently requires specialized invasive monitoring with bolts and external ventricular drains. In addition to the specialized neurological care that these patients require, the patients are also treated for various types of shock, renal failure, respiratory failure, and other common diagnoses seen in critically ill patients.
