Stroke, or the destruction of brain tissue caused by a hemorrhage or clotting of blood vessels, is an extraordinarily serious condition.
With these type of statistics, it’s probably no surprise that stroke is one of the top ten diagnoses at St. Joseph’s Hospital.
Strokes and aneurysms attack the human brain, the center of the body, the seat of the mind. In order to combat the onslaught of these abnormalities, St. Joseph’s Hospital developed its own Neuroscience Program in 2000, which now houses one of the nation’s most comprehensive stroke and aneurysm programs. St. Joseph’s Hospital received certification as a Comprehensive Stroke Center from DNV GL Healthcare, reflecting the highest level of competence for treatment of serious stroke events.
