Heart Attack
For certain patients experiencing a heart attack, the hospital offers
emergency angioplasty, achieving outcomes that are far better than traditional
drug therapy.
Stroke
Holy Cross Hospital cares for more stroke patients
than any other hospital in Montgomery or Prince George’s counties.
The hospital’s stroke team is available 24/7 to evaluate and treat possible strokes via a consistent evidence-based pathway during those crucial first hours. Holy Cross Hospital’s two dedicated cardiac care units are equipped with the latest technology for continuous cardiac and oxygen monitoring capabilities. They are staffed with nurses with specialized expertise for the best possible care for the patient.
