24/7 Cardiac Care for Patients Experiencing Heart Attacks

Emergency Treatment of Cardiac Arrest

When patients experience chest pain, it is crucial that they receive urgent and appropriate care. The Chest Pain Center at Anderson Hospital is open 24/7 and provides rapid evaluation by an emergency department physician upon arrival. Additionally, the nursing staff is specially trained to care for patients experiencing chest pain. With proven protocols established to transfer patients to higher levels of care, in addition to an on-site, 24/7 interventional cardiac cath lab, we have access to the most advanced cardiovascular technology available.

Our cardiovascular medical team collaborates with trained EMS providers in Collinsville, Edwardsville, Maryville, Glen Carbon, Troy, Highland, and Staunton, Illinois. These providers promptly recognize, diagnose, and treat patients experiencing a heart attack on the spot, even before they arrive at the hospital. This prompt response allows our interventional cardiologists and cath lab team to prepare for the patient's arrival, resulting in better outcomes.
