It's important to have a critical care team by your side who is dedicated to providing comprehensive, attentive care.

At the University of Maryland Capital Region Medical Center, your critical care team is made up of specially trained professionals.

The team includes:

  • A 24/7 in-house intensivist (board-certified physician who specializes in critical care)
  • 24/7 critical care advanced practice providers
  • Specialized critical care nurses
  • An intensive care unit (ICU) resident
  • Respiratory therapists for breathing care
  • Physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists
  • Specialized critical care pharmacist
  • Social service specialists who support you and your loved ones

Critical Care Treatment

  • Multi-trauma injuries
  • Recovery from difficult surgeries
  • Recovery from open heart coronary artery bypass surgery and valve replacement surgery (our cardiac surgery program received the maximum three-star designation for quality care by the Society of Thoracic Surgeons)
  • Serious critical illnesses
  • Surgical obstetrics problems

In addition, our rapid response team has the ability to go anywhere within the hospital to treat anyone who needs immediate critical care. This helps us provide fast, efficient treatment when it matters most.
