AMC earns awards for stroke care
Angel Medical Center in Franklin is the recipient of three prestigious awards given by the American Heart Association and the American Stroke Association in the critical effort to combat stroke.
The AHA/ASA awarded AMC with the Silver Plus Award, the Bronze Award, and the Target: Stroke Honor Roll recognition. Each award carries its own distinct merit recognizing hospitals that meet the qualifications defined by the Get With The Guidelines-Stroke program, an evidence- and guideline-based approach to ensure that patient’s receive the best stroke care available.
AMC’s three new awards are consistent with the hospital’s status as a “Stroke-Ready Hospital,” which was granted by the AHA/ASA and the Joint Commission in 2016, a national health care accreditation and certification organization.
