Emergency Medicine at HCMC
- Green medicine: general floor medicine, can have people
in A6/B6 monitored beds e.g. syncope.
- Blue medicine: cardiology-takes
patients with acute cardiac issues, including patients with CHF exacerbations.
- Yellow: MICU– patients who need
to be in the intensive care unit with various problems (patients
can also have a MI rule out in the
MICU if their primary problem is not cardiac).
- Red: Renal:
Take all dialysis patients no matter what the complaint or problem.
The fellow must be called prior to calling the team to approve all
admissions.
- Surgery: act as consultants and should be called down to evaluate
patients prior to admission.
- Family Practice: takes all their own
patients
with non-surgical problems. Be sure to ask your potential green
medicine patients
who their primary care provider, often it is FP. The big FP clinic
is on Lake street.
