United Regional receives national award from American College of Cardiology
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — United Regional Health Care System officials have some big news to share as they announce and celebrate a significant accomplishment.
During a reception today, United Regional CEO Cory Edmondson announced that the hospital has earned the HEARTcare Center National Distinction of Excellence from the American College of Cardiology. Edmondson said they got this award through the outstanding excellence they provide day in and day out in several departments, including cardiology. Edmondson said staff members there must be board-certified while also providing consistent care for the patients who walk through the doors.
'This would not be possible without our dedicated doctors and staff, especially our cath lab. They're performing at a top-notch and excellent level, especially in the area of technology that we provide. We wouldn't be able to do this if we didn't have the latest and greatest technology, and do the latest and greatest procedures, but our highly trained staff can make that happen,' Edmondson said.
Edmondson said that only a few healthcare systems in the nation have ever received this national recognition, and, of course, we here at KFDX want to congratulate the staff at United Regional.
