Wilmington Hospital

3 West is a 9-bed cardiac care unit at Wilmington Hospital. 3 West focuses on the care of short-stay patients with primary cardiac diagnoses, offering staff a diverse and enriching clinical experience.  Team members on 3W can cross-train on:

·         1W Medical Observation Unit. 1W (10 beds) are newly constructed Medical Observation units that provide care for adult medical patients admitted from the Emergency Department under Observation status.  Common diagnoses include (but are not limited to) syncope, chest pain and ruling out stroke – conditions that need work-up beyond what’s provided in the ED but may not require a traditional inpatient hospital stay. 

·         3M Medical Observation Unit.  3MOU an 8-bed unit dedicated to the care of adult medical patients admitted under observation status. Common diagnoses include, but are not limited to, ruling out stroke, syncope, and chest pain—conditions that require further evaluation and testing beyond the Emergency Department. As an observation-only unit, 3MOU offers a dynamic, fast-paced environment characterized by high patient turnover. The average length of stay typically falls between 12-32 hours. Patients who require inpatient care will be transitioned from 3MOU to the appropriate inpatient unit.
