It Takes a Village

Considering our high acuity patients, we could not give the excellent care we do without the support of one another. Our patient population is unique, and each case is different in the way we provide care.

• Patient care model: Registered Nurses & Patient Care Technicians/Nurse Technicians

• Ratios: 3:1 patients per RN for NPH patients x12 hrs, 4-5 patients per 1 RN based on acuity

Our team delivers expert care through collaboration with our Neurosurgeons, pain medicine physicians, physical therapists, occupational therapists and pain psychiatrists.

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) Program

• The only NPH program in Central Florida and one of only 10 in the US

• NPH is often masked by the normal aging process, is difficult to diagnose and often goes untreated which is what inspired us to create this program
