Intensive Care Unit (ICU) / Telemetry Unit (TU)
 A cornerstone of Holland Hospital’s recent expansion is the new 30-bed Intensive Care and Telemetry Unit. All rooms are private and roomy providing the space not only for the needd technology, life-saving equipment and medical professionals, but also for family members and visitors.
ICUs strategic location near the Emergency Department ensures immediate intervention for patients with life-threatening conditions.
Highly skilled nurses, specially trained in cardiac intervention, neurosurgery, multi-system failure and other high-risk situations, provide constant patient observation and monitoring in the ICU/TU.
