Respiratory illness treatment
Whether it’s an advanced case of pneumonia or a severe asthma attack, there are times where patients with respiratory illnesses many need to be hospitalized. At Atlantic Health, our intensive care units (ICU) are ready to assist these individuals 24/7 with multidisciplinary care designed to improve outcomes and survival rates.
We use mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic monitoring and support, aggressive resuscitation and other forms of critical care intervention, when necessary. Throughout the treatment process, our compassionate staff keeps family members informed of the patient’s status.
