Legacy One Call is available 24/7 to physicians within the Portland metropolitan area and across the region. There's no need to call Bed Access or a nursing supervisor. With Legacy One Call, physicians will have their patients admitted or have a bed secured in the shortest time possible.
When you call, a patient placement specialist will assess your need and manage all aspects of the call, including:
- Determining bed availability for direct admits, transfers and ED admits and assisting with the transfer process.
- Making connections with appropriate specialists for transfers and consultations.
- Access to the Life Flight Network and The Children's Hospital KIDS Team (mobile ICU for neonatal and pediatric transport and treatment).
