Washington Regional`s Neuro Progressive Unit is a 20-bed step-down unit whose patient population includes Strokes, Seizures, Traumatic Brain Injuries, & Elective Spinal Surgeries. Our Neuro Progressive Unit helps bridge the gap between intensive care & medical/surgical units and provides specialized care for our neuro population. The patients on this unit are more stable, but still require a high level of skilled nursing care & surveillance. Nurse-to-Patient Ratio is 4:1 and is dependent on acuity of the patient(s).

Team Culture
Our team consists of Registered Nurses, Educators, Clinical Coordinators, and Acute Care Nurse Assistants. You`ll work closely with an interdisciplinary team including physical therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, and case management to facilitate optimal wellness and post-discharge transitions of care. RNs on Neuro Progressive also work closely with the Neuro ICU staff to ensure a successful transition across the continuum of care. This unique population and a consistent group of vascular neurologists, neurosurgeons, and advanced practice providers (APRNs and PAs) allow for the development of collaborative and supportive relationships among caregivers.
