Can my loved ones special medical problems be treated while they are patients at PNRC?
Yes, many of our patients have pre-existing medical problems like diabetes or high blood pressure, or are on blood thinning medications, or have feeding or breathing tubes and other respiratory complications. Treatment of these and other complicating medical conditions are coordinated by our rehab doctors who work in accordance with the patient’s specialists when needed. Our nursing staff is fully trained in all general medical conditions, with advanced specialization in rehabilitation nursing. Due to the location of PNRC, inside the Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center, all services of a medical/surgical hospital are available.
