On October 11, 2016 at 1:30 p.m., the hospital will Go Live with this extra layer of care in which highly trained intensivist physicians and critical care specialists support care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week using telecommunication and other technologies. With this new service, Springs will enhance patient safety while also meeting a best practice standard to have intensivist physicians monitoring ICU patients around the clock.
