Hospitalist Program at Beaufort County Medical Center

Our hospitalists are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week

What is a Hospitalist?
A hospitalist is a medical doctor who provides care to patients while they are in the hospital. The hospitalist works closely with primary care and internal medicine doctors and other community based and hospital-based physicians to provide expert care for patients in the hospital. Hospitalist physicians see only patients who are in the hospital for treatment. Hospitalists physicians are specialized in hospital medicine and do not see patients outside of the hospital.

Who will answer my questions?
A During your hospital stay, your hospitalist will answer any questions you or your family may have. That doesn’t mean you can’t contact your personal doctor, but it does mean that a physician is available to answer your questions.

What happens after my hospital stay?
Your hospitalist will provide you with all the information and care you need until you can see your personal doctor. We also contact your doctor when you are discharged from the hospital and share the instructions you received. That means, when you go for your next appointment, your doctor will be aware of your follow-up care.

How does the Hospitalist program benefit me?
The hospitalist consults with your personal doctor and provides medical care when you need it.
They can monitor your progress and condition very effectively. This typically results in faster pain relief, quicker results for labs and x-rays, and quicker transitions out of the emergency department. They are available at all times to review lab or radiology results. Health care provided by hospitalists shows a reduction of medical complications including blood clots and pneumonia. In addition,
these physicians can quickly improve symptoms of chronic conditions such as heart failure.
