Infectious Disease Management

Infectious disease management provides the expertise needed to manage bodily system failures that occur with complicated diseases. Our staff, equipped with the latest technology, cares for patients who have osteomyelitis, MRSA, staphylococcal bacteremia, septicemia, severe urinary tract infections, or necrotizing fasciitis and may require complex wound care, management of medication and IV regimes, or respiratory care.

Team members are certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support, have advanced training in wound care, and are qualified to care for patients with lymphedema. We consult with our infectious disease physician and with referring physicians to ensure coordinated treatment. Patients have private rooms with bedside and ambulatory telemetry monitoring, observation rooms, an onsite laboratory, pharmacy, CT scan and diagnostic imaging services.

Inpatient Infectious Disease Management

Every patient is different, so care must be individualized. Our inpatient program supports each stage of recovery. At Gaylord, rehabilitation is physical, emotional, and social. The goal is to achieve maximum personal independence and a reentry to the community.
