At UMC, your heart is our priority, a fact that’s been recognized once again by the American College of Cardiology. The hospital recently earned accreditation as a Chest Pain Center with Primary PCI, reflecting its continued commitment and expertise in treating patients experiencing chest pain.
This accreditation highlights the high standard of care provided by UMC’s team. It means that when you come to UMC with symptoms of a heart attack or other heart-related issues, you’re in the safest and most capable hands.
The team’s ability to perform Primary PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention), a procedure used to restore blood flow to the heart, is a key component of this recognition. This approach helps reduce the severity of a heart attack and can make a significant difference in a patient’s recovery.
