Special Care Unit

Special Care Unit is the leader in caring for ventilator-dependent patients. For hospitals, patients, and their families, liberation from a ventilator is the most important step toward recovery. 
We take an uncommon approach, with a multi-disciplinary team delivering therapy several times a day. By centralizing all ventilator-dependent patients in one unit, rather than spread throughout the hospital, our team is located side-by-side with patients, increasing both access and rehabilitation frequency.
Our results are equally uncommon, with the highest vent-weaning rates in the industry, fewer days in the hospital, and significantly lower readmission rates compared to traditional ICUs. Today, our team of more than 200 dedicated professionals are delivering uncommon outcomes - both clinically and financially - in Florida and Alabama.
