  All
of our efforts are possible because of the nine-story, 178-bed center devoted
to psychiatry and the neurosciences. All of the activities of the clinical
neurosciences are housed within this building. Neurology, neurosurgery and
otolaryngology/head and neck surgery share 80 medical/surgical beds. There
is a 22-bed intensive care unit staffed by neurology, neurosurgery, and
neuroanesthesiology/critical care. A specialized epilepsy monitoring unit
is also located in the facility. The operating rooms are in proximity to
both the intesive care units and the wards. The specialized care teams devoted
to neurology, neurosurgery, and critical care include nursing, both on the
floors and in the operating rooms, neuroanesthesiology, neuroradiology,
neurological electrophysiology, a cerebrovsacular diagnostic laboratory,
a neuropsychiatric service and a center for multidisciplinary evaluation
and treatment of pain. The Meyer building provides integration of all these
activities. Call rooms are centrally located and there is a neuroscience
branch of the Welch Medical Library on the eighth floor. An
affiliated hospital, The Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, is an acute
patient care facility with state-of-the-art operating rooms and intensive
care units where residents spend a portion of their residency training.
The Pediatric Neurosurgery Service, a division of the Department of Neurosurgery,
is headquarted in the Children's Medical and Surgical Center in the Johns
Hopkins Hospital. |
