Scope of Services

• Acute Care: Nursing staff are primary members of the team that supports the comprehensive treatment plan for patients in our acute care units. A sense of accomplishment will be evidenced as you assist your patients' recovery from the acute phase of illness through the outpatient reinforcement to a return to their highest level of well-being.

• Long Term Care: Our 139-bed long-term care facility enables nurses to enhance the wellbeing of our residents, taking a role in offering quality and serenity in assisting these men and women during the twilight years of life.
• Maternity Care: Our Birthplace at UPMC Williamsport welcomes over 1,300 babies each year, allowing nurses there to impact the health and well-being of a new family.

• Outpatient Care: Outpatients are served through our new Surgery Center. As a society focused on time, our nursing staff help patients have their procedures done so they can quickly move on with their daily lives.
• Surgical Care: On our inpatient units, the nursing staff serve as gatekeepers for the interdisciplinary team, assisting surgical patients in their recovery from orthopedic and reconstructive procedures, vascular and thoracic surgery, major oncologic interventions and neurological surgery., A major heart hospital for the region also provides the opportunity to specialize in caring for patients recovering from open heart surgery, heart bypass and angioplasty procedures.
