Cardiovascular Care in Bend
St. Charles Health System is proud to offer some of the best cardiovascular care in the nation. Patients will find easy access to a variety of heart and lung medical experts all in one building. This gives us a great advantage in helping you feel better as all St. Charles Heart and Lung Center providers ensure your treatments are coordinated, streamlined and comprehensive. The St. Charles Heart One program brings physicians, emergency responders and area hospitals together to ensure that patients suffering from acute myocardial infarctions – or heart attacks – receive care as quickly as possible. The amount of time it takes for a heart attack patient to receive a stent once reaching St. Charles Bend – known as door-to-balloon time – is better than national averages, and it means St. Charles Bend has the lowest mortality rate for heart attack patients of all hospitals in the state of Oregon. Our cardiac rehab program helps patients recover and improve their quality of life, helping patients who have had a heart attack, heart surgery or other cardiac event recover and reduce their risk of further heart problems. Cardiac rehabilitation includes a combination of exercise, education and support.
