Medical City Heart Hospital named among nation's best
Becker's Hospital Review names Medical City Heart Hospital in list of "Hospitals and Health Systems with Great Heart Programs."
Dallas, TX — Becker’s Hospital Review has named Medical City Heart Hospital one of the top cardiology programs in the U.S.
In its prestigious list of “Hospitals and Health Systems with Great Heart Programs,” Becker’s notes that Medical City Heart Hospital, a Medical City Dallas facility, has a track record of excellence in pioneering the latest advanced treatments, patient care and safety.
“This honor reflects the exceptional expertise and compassionate care provided by our dedicated physicians, nurses and support staff,” says Jay deVenny, CEO of Medical City Dallas. “Our program thrives because our multidisciplinary teams are united by a steadfast commitment to excellence always.”
Medical City Heart Hospital’s comprehensive cardiac services encompass advanced heart failure treatment – including heart transplant and mechanical circulatory devices – complex heart and vascular surgery, a dedicated cardiac emergency department, minimally invasive procedures, and cardiac rehabilitation.
Additionally, the hospital recently earned the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization’s Gold Level Center of Excellence Award for its exceptional commitment to evidence-based quality measures, staff training and ongoing clinical care for patients with cardio-respiratory system failure. ECMO is a highly advanced form of life support that oxygenates blood outside the body, temporarily replacing the function of the heart and lungs and allowing those organs to rest.
To meet the growing demand for Medical City Heart Hospital’s award-winning care, construction is underway to expand the hospital. The expansion will add much-needed beds to serve the increasing numbers of patients who seek out Medical City Heart Hospital for its highly specialized cardiovascular services.
Medical City Heart Hospital joins a prominent list of hospitals to earn the heart program distinction from Becker’s, which developed its list based on nominations and research.
