coronary intensive care unit/Capitalize? - Sharon


Posted: May 14, 2015

Should Coronary Intensive Care Unit be capitalized? Thank you.

Check your Account Specifics - As all are different.

[ In Reply To ..]
But if nothing in your account specifics as to style, coronary intensive care unit as a stand alone phrase is lowercase but capped if it follows a specific CICU, such as the hospital name:

coronary intensive care unit

but

Idaho General Hospital Coronary Intensive Care Unit

For the last week, I have now been getting output without any punctuation! The commas have been gone for some time, but now the rest is gone. And they wonder why our line counts aren't going up. Shaw apparently thinks that the more ways we have to see our production, the more we will produce. LOL. The way to raise production is to get the ASR right! Until then, my production numbers will fall where ever they land as my production is the result of other people's work which I ha ...

This is confusing.  I searched this, and it is written multiple different ways at hospitals and other sites.  Sometimes written in upper case, other times in lower case.  I found a "step-down therapy" in Stedman's, but nothing about a unit.   Is there a correct choice, or just type what appears to be the best option? Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks so very much. ...

Unit Secretary Duties
Jul 19, 2012

Okay, AFAIK, a unit secretary is someone who works in a particular unit at a hospital, usually, and handles all sorts of duties. That much I know. But lately, some of the ads for this job seem to be adding on other duties that I didn't think a unit sec. had to know: CNA; monitor technician. So now you have to be trained as a CNA or take courses in telemetry to work as a unit secretary? ...
