Quality medical care is just a short ride away from a Yakima nursing home at Yakima Regional Medical Center. Founded in 1891, Yakima’s first hospital has grown from a humble seven-room house to a state-of-the-art, 214-bed facility with some of the most advanced technology and equipment in Central Washington.
Yakima Regional’s recently renovated 21-bed, Level III trauma emergency facility is home to the area’s only “15-minute Emergency Room (ER) guarantee,” which guarantees that all patients in the ER will be assessed and triaged within 15 minutes of arrival.
Nursing home seniors receive fast, attentive and compassionate care at Yakima Regional during an urgent medical situation.
In 2006, Yakima Regional launched its Hospitalist program which employs five full-time physicians and two nurse practitioners who specialize in caring for patients during their hospital stays and coordinating care with outside physicians so that patients receive the best possible care.
Should your loved one have an extended hospital stay, a qualified Hospitalist will be on hand to help with the transition to and from their Yakima nursing home.
