Transferring a Cardiac Patient
Our Cardiac Transfer Center is open 24/7, accepting and facilitating the transfer of any patient requiring advanced levels of cardiac care at all times. Our goal is to facilitate the safe and efficient transfer of patients with any cardiac diagnosis to our New Jersey tertiary care centers.
Patients can be transferred in emergent and non-emergent situations to the hospital designated by the referring physician. The referring physician speaks directly with the cardiologist who will receive the patients, and in the case of non-emergent transfer, is given frequent updates regarding bed availability.
One call to the Cardiac Transfer Center will:
- Arrange for the transfer of a patient from any hospital
- Facilitate referral to the preferred physician
- Secure a bed
- Schedule a procedure
- Transfer all patient information
- Coordinate feedback of patient status
