Conroe Regional Medical Ctr

Description

Twentyfive years ago Conroe Regional Medical Center was known as the quotcounty hospitalquot Today having expanded to 360 beds a staff of 1200 with over 250 physicians on staff CRMC is being recognized as a comprehensive regional tertiary referral center

quotFrom newborns who require neonatal intensive care management and monitoring to patients who come to us for offpump coronary bypass surgery Conroe Regional Medical Center has come a long way from the title and services of the county hospitalquot said Jerry Nash CEO quotWe are proud of our associations with hospitals in The Woodlands Livingston Huntsville Cleveland Tomball Kingwood and throughout the region who refer their patients to us when there is a need for a higher level of carequot

Both the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the Emergency Department are Level III services providing higher levels of care that are not readily available in many regions between Dallas and Houston

The recently opened and expanded Intensive Care and Cardiac Care Units provide stateoftheart technology and monitoring for as many as 36 patients at a time

quotHaving an ICUCCU of this size happened by designquot Nash said quotWe planned for the influx of people who are moving to this part of Texas to enjoy the open spaces and lakes in their retirement years We wanted to provide them with services and quality care when they need it close to homequot

The other end of the age spectrum has not been forgotten Our neonatal unit features intensive care services for highrisk newborns born at CRMC or transported in from anywhere in a 100mile radius Neonatologists attend to these babies as do board certified physicians of many specialties and a certified nursing staff A transport team specially trained to prepare care for and manage these newborns as they are transferred in from other facilities is on call 24hours a day

The community will see more evidence of a greater commitment to heart care as facelifts occur throughout the hospital to house additional technology to provide better accommodations for patients and their families and to create additional consultation space for our physicians Development of a comprehensive HeartCare Center will continue to be the focus for CRMC in the years ahead

quotWe want residents who are experiencing heart problems to have one central location to receive their care We continue to improve technology and add necessary personnel to insure the best heart care in the region Heart disease is the nations number one killer and we want to do all we can to help eradicate itquot Nash said

From chest pain to offpump coronary artery bypass surgery CRMC provides comprehensive cardiovascular services Patients come for laser heart surgery open heart surgery minimally invasive cardiac surgery and videoscopic vein harvesting as well as thrombolytic therapy and peripheral disease services such as balloon angioplasty stents rotational atherectomy and pacemakers

Of course surgery outpatient testing 247 emergency care in the CRMC Level III Trauma Center OB Womens services Cancer services sleep lab hyperbaric medicine diabetes management physical therapy cardiac rehab and all other services of the hospital will continue to be offered to the region

The objective of Conroe Regional Medical Center remains the same to serve the people in the community who come to us for their healthcare needs The focus continues to expand as we offer the entire region a convenient quality location filled with educated professional staff who can provide expert care using technologically advanced techniques and equipment right in their own backyard
