Hospitalist focus on patient care, comfort
A full-time hospital-based physician has distinct benefits. For example, a Hospitalist has the ability to rapidly coordinate inpatient care and react in real-time throughout the day to clinical data and changes in a patient's medical status.
At each step, whether ordering treatments, test, or consult with specialists when appropriate, communication between the Hospitalist and your primary care physician is seamless.
Hospitalists are also available consistently throughout a patient's stay to answer questions, discuss test results and provide reassurance. The Hospitalists also are familiar with hospital staff and the latest technologies available at hospital.
