The right place for world-class care, close to home.
Chest Pain Centers + Emergency Departments
UofL Health - Heart Hospital at Jewish Hospital was the first hospital in Kentucky to become a full Chest Pain Center (CPC) with Primary PCI and Resuscitation Accreditation from the American College of Cardiology (ACC). CPC-accredited hospitals demonstrate better survival rates and lower readmission rates for heart attack and heart failure patients. In addition, our CPC approach to cardiac patient care allows clinicians to reduce time to treatment during critical early states of heart attack. Accredited facilities can also better monitor patients to ensure patients are neither sent home too early, nor needlessly admitted.
