Located near the downtown area, the ED treats many patients who have a great need including a large volume of mentally ill patients. The staff works closely with the Fort Wayne Police Department and Parkview Behavioral Health to facilitate care of those patients, and also have recently added an enclosed behavioral health unit within the ED that is staffed with nurses and techs trained in mental health care. The Randallia ED will treat any kind of medical complaint, as well as some trauma, and uses a collaborative team approach to nursing and care of patients. The staff includes a great mixture of newer nurses as well as some nurses with over 20 years’ experience who work closely with the physicians and have great collaborative relationships with them. The Randallia campus fosters close working relationships among all departments in the hospital, and provides a family-like atmosphere. The campus continues to grow with the addition of new units and updating of older units as part of a $55 million renovation.
