Cardiology

Both Physicians Regional - Collier Blvd. and Physicians Regional - Pine Ridge have received full Chest Pain Center Accreditation with PCI from the American College of Cardiology. An Accredited Chest Pain Center’s (CPC) evidence-based, protocol-driven and systematic approach to cardiac patient care allows clinicians to reduce time to treatment during the critical early stages of a heart attack. Accredited facilities monitor patients when it is not initially clear whether or not a patient is having a coronary event.

Accredited Echocardiography Centers

Both Physicians Regional Healthcare System locations are Accredited Echocardiography Centers. Patients can rely on accreditation as an indication that the facility performing their examination has made a commitment to providing quality testing for the diagnosis of heart disease and disorders. Our accredited facility has been carefully critiqued on all aspects of its operations considered relevant by medical experts in the field of echocardiography.

Accreditation by IAC means:

Our facility has undergone a thorough review of its operational and technical components by a panel of experts in the field.
Our facility upholds processes that are in compliance with national standards.
Our facility has standards in place for patient and personnel safety.
Our facility’s accreditation is valid for a period of three years.
