Visit the Pediatric Hospitalist Program here.

The Cooley Dickinson Hospitalists are highly qualified, board-certified medicine providers who specialize in caring for hospitalized adults. They are team leaders within the hospital, coordinating your care among the doctors, nurses, subspecialists and other key clinical staff from the time you are admitted until you go home. We have doctors in the hospital 24 hours a day to handle any emergencies.

Your hospitalist provider will communicate with your family as you desire and will keep your primary doctor informed as to your condition, progress and discharge. A full summary of your hospital stay is sent to your doctor the day you are discharged.

If a rehabilitation or nursing facility transfer is required, your hospitalist will discuss this with you and will coordinate with the therapists and your case manager. You should feel free to ask your hospitalist any questions regarding your plan of care. If you have questions about the Adult Medicine Hospitalist program, contact our program coordinator at (413) 582-2792.
