Chest Pain Center
STRHS-Lawrenceburg is proud to be an accredited chest pain center. We achieved our accreditation in 2007. To earn accreditation, We first had to meet or exceed a wide set of stringent criteria and then allow an on-site evaluation by a review team from the Society of Chest Pain Centers. The Society promotes protocol-based medicine, often through a Chest Pain Center model to address diagnosis and treatment of acute coronary symptoms, acute decompensated heart failure, and to promote the adoption of process improvement by healthcare providers.
This accreditation qualifies our hospital's Emergency Department (ED) as a full-spectrum emergency cardiac care program; offering rapid diagnosis and fast track treatment before a situation worsens, often preventing a severe heart attack from occurring. This also standardizes care for those entering with chest pain, thus resulting in a more efficient use of the ED, which reduces or eliminates bottle-necks in the Emergency Department.
