Memorial Cardiac and Vascular Institute, a leader in the prevention, detection, and treatment of cardiovascular disease, has recently earned accreditation from three industry-leading organizations:
– The American College of Cardiology (ACC) has awarded Memorial’s Total Heart Center with an accreditation for Heart Failure with an Outpatient Services designation. It is the only facility in South Florida to receive the three-year accreditation and the only center in Florida with the Outpatient Services designation.
– The Adult Congenital Heart Association (ACHA) has recognized the Adult Congenital Heart Disease program at Memorial Regional Hospital as an Adult Congenital Heart Disease Accredited Comprehensive Care Center, the first center in Florida to receive this accreditation.
– The Joint Commission accredited Memorial’s Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) program, making it a Joint Commission-accredited VAD program for the tenth consecutive year.
“These accreditations are the result of the hard work and dedication to excellence of our clinical and administrative teams,” said Michele Slane, vice president of Memorial Cardiac and Vascular Institute. “They are difficult to earn and indicative of the high level of care we provide.”
