At United Care Network we created very detailed in-service protocol for virtually any emergency, so the staff trained to respond to any life threatening critical situation.

Quality improvement is an important activity for all members of United Care interdisciplinary sub-acute care team.

We created a "how-to" guide for our nurses that focuses on critical care, summarizes key concepts, and outlines a practical approach to the development, implementation, evaluation, and maintenance of our interdisciplinary quality improvement program.

Most importantly, all our patient care team members, nurses, and certified nurse assistants have intensive Clinical and ICU experience.

All of our nurses are IV and Vent Certified to guaranty quality and appropriateness of care provided.

Our expert healthcare and rehabilitation team includes specialists in pulmonary medicine, rehabilitation and internal medicine, neurology, neuropsychology, agressive wound and critical care.

United Care team of contracted specialists under supervision of our medical director advises the facility on all matters relating to care quality and performance improvement.
