We function as one team with amazing teamwork to provided top quality care to our patients. We are a team of dedicated co-workers that work together to ensure patients receive the lifesaving care they need.

We are a medical surgical ICU that sees a wide variety of patients and diagnosis. This diverse nature provides a lot of educational moments for coworkers. The TCU provides care to acutely ill patients that are not quite to the point of needing ICU or just removed from ICU status.

What ties us together so well is the great teamwork and multi-disciplinary collaboration.
