CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital – Medical Center announces designation as an accredited Chest Pain Center

We are proud to announce our recent designation as an accredited Chest Pain Center by the Society of Chest Pain Centers (SCPC), an organization dedicated to eliminating heart disease as the number one cause of death in the United States. To become an accredited Chest Pain Center, the Hospital underwent a rigorous evaluation of its capabilities to
access, diagnose, and treat patients who may be experiencing a heart attack.
More than five million Americans visit hospitals each year with chest pain. Chest Pain Center accreditation means
CHRISTUS Santa Rosa Hospital – Medical Center meets or exceeds quality measures based on improving the process for the care of the patient with acute coronary syndrome. The care of the patient starts from the onset of the patient’s symptoms, and ensures collaboration among emergency medical services, emergency department and
catheterization lab, observation unit, and cardiac rehab.
