CHI St. Vincent Infirmary received the Mission: Lifeline® Gold Plus Receiving Quality Achievement Award for implementing specific quality improvement measures outlined by the American Heart Association for the treatment of patients who suffer severe heart attacks.

As the coronavirus pandemic continues to impact communities across the nation, the American Association of Nurse Practitioners® (AANP) urges all patients to take steps to help manage the stress, anxiety, depression, and related mental health issues that many are feeling. September is National Suicide Prevention Month, so AANP is increasing awareness of the warning signs that a friend or family member may be experiencing a more serious mental health struggle that requires immediate action.
