Excelsior Springs Hospital Ctr runs as a Critical Access hospital with 25 beds and provides a wide range of medical services for people in the area and folks coming from nearby towns too, and the hospital's managed by the city, which means it falls under local government control, and that's shaped how it serves the community with both everyday care and more urgent needs, since you'll find a full emergency department with 24/7 care and short wait times, and the emergency staff there have experience with many different situations, and of course, they have a HealtheLife Care Portal, which lets patients see their own medical records, appointments, and test results easily, which can be a real help to people who like to keep track of their health. The hospital has several clinics for things like cardiology, dermatology, gynecology, and pediatrics, and it offers behavioral health led by a psychiatric specialist, so people can get help for mental and emotional concerns, and there's Senior Life Solutions for older adults. There's a retail pharmacy inside the hospital, and with patient account services right there too, it makes picking up prescriptions and handling billing much less of a hassle.
Excelsior Springs Hospital Ctr brings together a bunch of specialties under one roof, and folks can find help for heart issues, skin problems, children's care, and women's health, plus orthopedics, gastroenterology, pain management, and even oncology for cancer care, so a lot can be handled without having to travel far. There's also ENT (ear, nose, and throat), rheumatology, pulmonology, podiatry, and urology doctors, and they run outpatient specialty clinics for those who need more specific care, and people can visit their Health Express Clinic at Price Chopper, which makes quick care more convenient, and that's helped a lot of busy people. The hospital's got a lab, radiology, imaging, and a rehab department, and folks who need rehab after an illness or injury can get it right there. For families going through hard times, home health and hospice care covers four counties, and for those who need a swing bed for recovery, both acute and skilled nursing beds are available.
The hospital owns a CMS Certification Number of 261322, and it's handled 2,370 patient days and 278 discharges, with a revenue showing just how many services it provides. Specialists from over 20 clinics see folks for checkups, treatment, and long-term care, and there's a psychologist on staff to help with counseling, making sure mental health isn't ignored. Patients and their families see the benefit of advanced technology for scans, diagnostics, and surgery, so folks don't have to head out of town for imaging or lab work. The hospital keeps up emergency preparedness, including discussions about responding to serious situations for the community's safety. The Foundation connected to the hospital also works to support better health services for everyone. The hospital staff earned a DAISY Award, which stands for nursing excellence, so you know they're recognized for their efforts. With all these services and the feel of a community hospital, Excelsior Springs Hospital Ctr tries to make care as simple and close to home as possible, and for older adults, that means easier access to a broad range of care when it's needed most.
