As a Comprehensive Stroke Center, we are trained in the latest procedures and technology, and offer the highest level of specialized stroke care from the second you arrive in the emergency room. Our efforts to improve cardiac care include an emergency response protocol for heart attack that ensures patients receive life-saving treatment as quickly as possible.
We’ll do everything we can to make you feel better. This may be a prescription for medication that will help with your symptoms or illness. Or it may just be reassurance that everything will be OK and instructions for taking care of yourself or your loved one at home. Either way, we consider it time well spent.
All treatments and tests have potential risks and benefits. If something isn’t likely to help you -- for example, antibiotics won’t cure a viral infection -- we won’t recommend it. If it's something for which the risks are greater than the potential benefit -- for example, a CT scan for a minor head injury -- we won’t recommend that, either.
