Lovelace Westside Hospital receives the American Heart Association Get With The Guidelines - Stroke GOLD PLUS and Target: Stroke Honor Roll award.
|
|
|
|
Lovelace Westside Hospital (LWSH) has received the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines®-Stroke GOLD PLUS and Target: Stroke Honor Roll quality achievement award for its in-hospital program improving stroke care by promoting consistent adherence to these guidelines.
This award recognizes Lovelace’s commitment to ensuring stroke patients receive the most appropriate treatment according to nationally recognized, research-based guidelines, ultimately leading to more lives saved and reduced disability.
|
|
|

“Lovelace Westside Hospital is committed to improving patient outcomes by practicing the latest treatment guidelines,” said Derrick Jones, chief executive officer of LWSH. “We are proud to have received this recognition for our stroke program. The end goal is to ensure more people in our community can experience longer, healthier lives.”
According to the American Heart Association, stroke is the number five cause of death and a leading cause of disability in the nation. A stroke occurs when a clot blocks a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain or it bursts. When that happens, part of the brain cannot get the blood and oxygen it needs, so brain cells die. Early stroke detection and treatment are key to improving survival, minimizing disability and accelerating recovery times.

NMHI was nominated by one of its physical assistants, Howard Diaz, who said, "The physicians and staff at the Heart Institute and Lovelace have been exceptional during my recent deployment. They allowed me to continue my civilian benefits and compensated me for loss in pay. My return to civilian employment went smoothly without unnecessary delays.
