In 2003, Mt. Carmel Regional Medical Center opened the Mt. Carmel Regional Heart Center. The Heart Center is a more than 3 million dollar investment in the fight against heart disease in Southeast Kansas. In Crawford County it is estimated that 48% of all deaths are a result of heart disease, compare that to the national average of 32% and it is easy to see the need for quality heart care in our community.
Mt. Carmel Regional Heart Center can positively impact those numbers by providing advanced coronary diagnoses locally, by assisting patients before their conditions become critical and by providing procedures for those patients requiring advanced treatment.
Mt. Carmel Regional Heart Center offers a cardiology team committed to excellence. With a number of diagnostic procedures used in diagnosis, treatment and recovery offered at Mt. Carmel, it’s easy to see why Mt. Carmel Regional Heart Center is “Bringing Heart Care Home to Southeast Kansas.”
