Cardiology/Telemtry (2nd Floor)

If action is what you are looking for, come join our critical care step-down team! Our 42 bed patient care unit is fully-monitored by telemetry. Telemetry is utilized on the second floor as an extension of the Emergency Department’s 23-hour chest pain observation program, as well as to monitor inpatients who meet the acuity criteria for a monitored bed. The 2nd Floor also houses a multi-purpose procedure room that is currently being utilized to perform transesophageal echocardiograms and elective cardioversions. Our staff is caring, friendly, knowledgeable, experienced and professional.

Linda Plumhoff, Patient Care Technician
“I really enjoy working with my co-workers on the 2nd Floor. Everyone is always willing to help one another, and a day never goes by that someone does not ask if one needs help.”

Kristen Watson, Patient Care Assistant
“In the seven months that I have been working on the 2nd Floor, I have gained a lot of knowledge and experience about health care that will be very useful as I pursue my nursing career. The nursing staff on the 2nd Floor works as a team, always willing to lend a hand whenever assistance is needed. I truly enjoy my job and am very proud to be a part of such a wonderful hospital.”

Tina Cosgrove, Administrative Technician
“I have worked at Baltimore Washington Medical Center for the past 16 years, as it is close to home, and the cleanest hospital I have ever been in. Working on the 2nd Floor has been very rewarding and a learning experience. All staff members from all levels work as a team, making admissions, patient care, and the transferring of patients to other cardiac hospitals an easier flow. The nurse manager is very flexible with working hours to not only meet family or school obligations but the overwhelming numbers of admissions on certain shifts.”
