AdventHealth Adds to Long-Term Tele-ICU Partnership with Advanced ICU Care

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Advanced ICU Care, the nation's leading provider of high-acuity telemedicine, announced an addition to its longstanding relationship with AdventHealth with the launch of its comprehensive tele-ICU care services at AdventHealth Lake Wales (Lake Wales, FL). The facility joins a number of AdventHealth locations which have implemented Advanced ICU Care's technology-enabled care services, which feature 24 x 7 x 365 intensivist-led patient oversight in support of bedside care teams and their critically ill patients.

The new tele-ICU implementation will enable AdventHealth Lake Wales to quickly achieve the AdventHealth three-fold goal for critical care: lower mortality rates, support bedside providers and nurses, and improve data capture that supports improved best practice compliance. The launch builds on Advanced ICU Care's trusted relationship with the AdventHealth system, which includes both tele-ICU services and remote inpatient telemetry monitoring.

"Advanced ICU Care is honored to further extend our clinical relationship with AdventHealth in support of the hospital system and facility's efforts to achieve their well-defined critical care goals," said Lou Silverman, CEO, Advanced ICU Care. "Our clinical collaboration with AdventHealth over more than six years demonstrates our focus on working closely with our partner hospitals and hospital systems to deliver the very best of acute care to patients."
