Lehigh Valley Hospital–Schuylkill has been reaccredited as a Chest Pain Center by the American College of Cardiology, reaffirming its commitment to rapid, lifesaving treatment for patients with cardiac symptoms.

Accredited hospitals must have physicians, nurses and hospital staff who can rapidly and efficiently provide lifesaving care with evidence-based and standardized methods. This reduces a patient’s length of stay, decreases readmissions and leads to better patient education and improved patient outcomes.

We offer advanced, lifesaving treatments for serious heart conditions like STEMI, including procedures such as coronary intervention and ECMO.🫀
