Through our relationship with The Intensivist Group, we have the availability of an expert in critical care medicine, 24/7. We see them as colleagues, as consultants, as teachers, as an expert second pair of eyes. With The Intensivist Group, our patient outcomes meet or exceed all benchmarks in critical care medicine, so patients get out of the hospital sooner, recover more quickly and have fewer complications.

In intensive care, where patients face multiple health problems that could change instantly, the patients benefit from having an intensivist present to address their issues in a timely manner. The Intensivist Group, with other doctors and providers of direct patient care, brings about an environment that is proactive, as opposed to reactive, in patient care.

Clinical Program Manager, The Intensivist Group

At The Intensivist Group, we strive for collaborative relationships that enhance the continuity of care for patients. For nurses, that means the opportunity to partner with ICU-based physicians who are readily accessible and to work with the multidisciplinary team. This allows us to develop evidence-based practice guidelines to improve patient care and outcomes.
