Congratulations to CCMC! Corpus Christi Medical Center is pleased to announce that the Society of Chest Pain Centers (SCPC) has recommended that Bay Area Medical Hospital be designated as an Accredited Chest Pain Center with PCI and Doctors Regional Medical Center be designated as an Accredited Chest Pain Center. The SCPC, founded in 1998 by cardiology and emergency medicine physicians, is a Nonprofit organization that bridges cardiology, emergency medicine, and Emergency Medical Service to reduce cardiac deaths.

Both facilities have been certified with the SCPC through phases 1 and 2. Phase 3 was completed this week by meeting the required 8 key elements and passing an on-site survey. Our facilities are 2 of only 693 accredited chest pain centers in the United States.

Many of you participated in the STEMI drills over the last few weeks or in the actual survey drills this week. Great job! Join us as we celebrate another accomplishment made possible because of each and every CCMC team member.
