BCU Inpatient Unit

Georgetown Community Hospital is unique in that it has a specialized wing designed exclusively for Bariatric Patients. The Bariatric Care Unit is equipped with amenities that typical patient care facilities do not have, such as larger shower stalls, size-friendly furniture and beds, appropriately sized gowns and a staff that has specific training in the needs of our bariatric population.

Another unique attribute that sets Georgetown Community Hospital apart from other facilities is the fact that our staff is trained to meet the specific needs of our bariatric patients. We do not pull from other areas of our facility to staff this unit, so our patients can always be certain they are being cared for by nurses who are well-trained and knowledgeable.

Christy Lusk, RN, is the director of this unit, and has several staff members who work with her in taking care of our patients. We know that your stay on the Bariatric Care Unit will be pleasant and comfortable.
