Special Features
The Neurocritical Care fellowship in Rochester, MN offers in-depth exposure to general and neurologic critical care to ensure competence in caring for critically-ill patients. As a well-recognized institution, in addition to caring for our local population, we also receive referrals for national and international patients with severe neurologic illness. We additionally manage acute stroke activations at our hospital and take referrals for acute stroke care from our spoke hospitals, allowing our team to care for these patients from the time of hospital arrival to ICU dismissal. The resources available for support in research are exceptional and available to staff and trainees alike.
