Located on the tenth floor of the Zecchino Pavilion (main building), our coronary care unit (CCU) and intermediate coronary care unit (ICCU) are committed to high quality care, as our hospital patient satisfaction surveys demonstrate: the CCU and ICCU have consistently received the highest scores possible.
The CCU and ICCU offer 36 private rooms, including 8 beds dedicated to intensive care patients with acute cardiac problems. We treat more than 120 patients each month, many of which are ttransferred in from other hospitals, making Rhode Island Hospital one of the busiest hospitals in New England for acute coronary care.
An important part of the CCU/ICCU mission is to bring contemporary treatments to our patients. As such, eligible patients are offered the opportunity to participate in clinical research. Access to newer treatments allows for more state-of-the-art care for you.
All your medical files are handled electronically, which allows our nurses to spend more time on your care and our physicians to evaluate the results of your procedure instantly and report them to your referring physician. Electronic medical files allow for ease of information referral and follow-up care.
