Creating a healing environment is the sum of many parts, including meeting the needs of the patient, patient family, hospital stakeholders and medical staff. UAB’s Cardiopulmonary Critical Care Intensive Care Unit (CPCC) on the 5th floor of the Medical Education is a comfortable, patient and patient family-focused unit that serves those on heart and/or lung bypass. The unit includes 9 ICU rooms, 10 ICU step-down rooms, a minor procedure room, and support spaces.
