Freeman Health System has been recognized for its excellence in cardiovascular care, receiving multiple awards from the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines program. These accolades include the Coronary Artery Disease STEMI Receiving Center Gold Plus award and a spot on the Target: Type 2 Diabetes Honor Roll.
The organization also earned the Stroke Gold Plus award with a focus on diabetes management, as well as the NSTEMI Gold award. Additionally, Freeman received recognition in resuscitation efforts, earning a Silver in Pediatric Resuscitation and a Target Survival award.
“These awards show Freeman Health System’s commitment to caring for those in their community who need cardiovascular care,” said Donald Lloyd-Jones, past volunteer president of the American Heart Association and current volunteer chair of the Association’s Quality Oversight Committee. “By following the American Heart Association’s quality improvement protocols, Freeman can help realize our shared vision of improved patient outcomes, fewer readmissions, and lower mortality rates—a win for health care systems, families, and communities.”
