Kern Medical awarded Advanced Certification for Primary Stroke Centers

Posted

The Joint Commission and the American Heart Association have awarded the Advanced Certification for Primary Stroke Centers to Kern Medical.

The certification means Kern Medical complies with stroke-related standards and requirements, including program management, the delivery of clinical care and performance improvement.

Stroke is the number four cause of death and a leading cause of adult disability in the U.S. Someone suffers a stroke every 40 seconds and dies every four minutes.

The hospital underwent a rigorous onsite review in September 2016.
