Specialized Inpatient Care Available 24/7

At Kit Carson County Memorial Hospital, we are committed to providing the highest level of care for our patients, and that’s why we are excited to introduce our new Hospitalist Program. Starting November 1st, our hospitalists will offer round-the-clock specialized care for all patients during their hospital stay, ensuring you receive focused, expert attention when it matters most.

What is Hospitalist Care?

Hospitalists are medical providers who specialize in inpatient care, meaning patients while they are in the hospital. Hospitalists are a constant presence when you are in the hospital.

Our hospitalist program offers more than just 24/7 care—it’s about providing the right care, at the right time, with a dedicated team that is entirely focused on your needs as an inpatient. Our hospitalists work closely with our entire care team to provide seamless, high-quality care that improves patient outcomes and enhances your hospital experience.

Key Benefits of Hospitalist Care

• Specialized Inpatient Focus: Hospitalists are experts in managing complex health conditions that require close monitoring, providing you with specialized care.
• 24/7 Availability: With hospitalists on-site 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you’ll have access to timely care and rapid responses to any changes in your condition.
• Continuous, Personalized Care: Our hospitalists oversee your treatment from admission to discharge, working in close collaboration with your primary care provider to ensure a smooth transition of care.
• Collaborative Approach: Hospitalists coordinate with specialists, nurses, and your primary care doctor, ensuring everyone involved in your care is informed and working together for the best outcomes.

How Does Hospitalist Care Work?

From the moment you are admitted to our hospital, a hospitalist will take charge of your care, continuously monitoring your condition and making treatment decisions as needed. They will also communicate directly with your primary care provider, ensuring you receive the best possible care and a coordinated discharge plan.
