Award-Winning Stroke Care
People who live in rural communities live an average of three years fewer than urban counterparts and have a 40% higher likelihood of developing heart disease and face a 30% increased risk for stroke mortality — a gap that has grown over the past two decades. Newport Hospital & Health Services is committed to changing that. For efforts to optimize stroke care and eliminate rural health care outcome disparities, Newport Community Hospital has received the American Heart Association’s 2024 Get With The Guidelines® – Stroke Rural Recognition Silver award. The award recognizes hospitals for their efforts toward acute stroke care excellence demonstrated by composite score compliance to guideline-directed care for intravenous thrombolytic therapy, timely hospital inter-facility transfer, dysphagia screening, symptom timeline and deficit assessment documentation, emergency medical services communication, brain imaging and stroke expert consultation.
