Critical Care Center


Critical Care 2

The second floor features the Donna and Ruben Mettler Critical Care Center, which includes 24 critical care and 24 post-critical care rooms.  The central columns in these rooms are flexible, allowing nurses to configure each room to the patient’s needs.  Because each nurse on this floor cares for only two patients at a time, there are built-in nurses’ substations between each set of rooms. 

Nurses can complete their charting while observing their patients.  Critical care patients have the greatest need for respiratory therapy (RT), so the RT Department is located on this floor.  Patients have near-immediate access to respiratory therapists. 

  • The New Saint John’s is designed to provide the fastest, most efficient way to deliver clinically advanced life-saving medical care to patients. From the state-of-the art, earthquake-absorbing base isolators upon which the hospital is built to the peak of its light-filled, four-story atrium, the New Saint John’s creates an inspired environment where clinical and compassionate expertise meet every day.
