Northside Cherokee Continues Award-Winning, Quality Heart Care

When someone is having a heart attack, stroke or other cardiovascular event, every second matters. In Cherokee County, patients transported to the emergency department at Northside Hospital Cherokee have received life-saving care in the cardiac catheterization laboratory faster than most other hospitals in the Atlanta region.

In 2017, Northside Hospital Cherokee was again recognized for providing high-quality cardiovascular and stroke care with several prestigious national health organization awards:

> The American College of Cardiologys NCDR ACTION Registry Gold Performance Achievement Award for heart attack care. Northside Hospital Cherokee is one of only thirty hospitals nationwide to receive this honor.
> The American Heart Association (AHA) Mission - Lifeline Heart Attack Receiving Center Gold Level Recognition Award
> The AHA Get With The Guidelines (GWTG) Gold Plus Achievement Award for heart failure
> The AHA GWTG Gold Plus Achievement Award with Target - StrokeSM Honor Roll Elite
> The AHA GWTG Gold Quality Achievement Award for Resuscitation. Northside is one of just five hospitals in Georgia, and two in metro Atlanta (the other is Northside Hospital Forsyth), to receive this award.

Northside Hospital Cherokee has the expertise, equipment, facilities and other resources needed to diagnose and treat heart attacks, coronary artery blockages, congenital heart defects, heart failure, stroke and other cardiovascular problems. The hospital offers the full cycle of cardiac care including PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) for STEMI (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction) and cardiac rehabilitation.

When the new Northside Hospital Cherokee was built, special attention was paid to how patients would be transported between the emergency department and cath lab and how each department would be designed to prevent barriers to care.
