This means that critically ill patients at NMC Health Medical Center will now have real-time access to board-certified pulmonary and critical care specialists — enhancing care for patients with mechanical ventilation needs, congestive heart failure, serious infections, and other life-threatening conditions. What This Expansion Means for NMC Health and Its Patients: ? Specialist expertise at the bedside 24/7 – No delays in care, no waiting for specialist availability, and no unnecessary transfers. ? Seamless collaboration with on-site teams – Nurses, respiratory therapists, and physicians can consult with tele-pulmonary and critical care specialists instantly via secure telemedicine technology. ? Better patient outcomes, right in the community – Keeping critically ill patients close to home for treatment leads to better recovery, improved care coordination, and enhanced patient satisfaction. "Access TeleCare prides itself on working with forward-thinking hospitals to enhance the delivery of clinical excellence locally," said Dr. Chris Gallagher, CEO of Access TeleCare. "NMC Health is exemplary in its commitment to patient care, and we are thrilled to be their partner. The addition of tele-pulmonary and critical care to the service lines will only enhance the level of care and commitment patients can expect to get from their local hospital." We're proud to be NMC Health's telemedicine partner, helping them bring life-saving pulmonary and critical care expertise directly to the bedside.
