The Faster. The Better.
When it comes to cardiac care, particularly during a heart attack, time and expertise matter. It’s one thing to say that you’re better, but it’s another altogether to demonstrate it, day after day, with each and every patient. St. Mark’s Hospital’s delivery of high-quality care is consistent, as proven by the quality performance and recognition we receive year after year.
- Top 50 Cardiovascular Hospital (Thomson Reuters, 2012)
- Top 15% in the nation for Heart Failure Treatment, five years in a row (HealthGrades, 2008-2012)
- Top 15% in the nation for Valve Replacement Surgery (HealthGrades, 2011-2012)
- Average door-to-balloon time is 61 minutes, which is well below the national standard of 90 minutes. This refers to the elapsed time from when a heart attack patient hits the door of the ER to when the catheter guide wire is inserted in the cath lab. The faster a heart attack patient receives care, the better the outcomes for the patient.

Emergency pre-hospital 12-lead EKG technology allows first responders to transmit patient's heart activity while in transit to St. Mark's Hospital. The ER staff is better equipped with a treatment plan ready and a medical team assembled before the patient even arrives.
