The CardioVascular
Institute is dedicated to the detection, prevention, intervention
and rehabilitation of heart related diseases. By working closely
with the entire Faith Regional health care system, we are able to
provide patients with a multidisciplinary approach to care that
rivals many major metropolitan cardiovascular centers. We've made
cardiac services easier to access. Today they are closer to you,
your family and your physician.
Using state-of-the-art
equipment and leading-edge protocols, our team of medical staff,
nurses and technicians provide patients with a specific diagnosis,
the best treatment and greatest possible outcomes for life.
| Cardiovascular
Care - We offer a wide range of preventive,
diagnostic, interventional, and rehabilitative care for coronary
artery disease, heart failure and peripheral vascular disease
in an inpatient setting.
Diagnostic
Services - We pinpoint the right diagnosis
through innovative non-invasive imaging techniques, including
echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, CT scanning and diagnostic
catheterization.

|
Interventional
Care - We focus on cardiac and peripheral procedures,
specializing in balloon, angioplasty, stenting and peripheral radiation.
Surgical
Care
- We have a dedicated cardiovascular team who provides different
techniques of coronary artery bypass, including "off pump"
and conventional bypass, heart valve repair and replacement, pacemakers,
aortic aneurysm, peripheral vascular and thoracic surgery procedures.
Acute
Cardiac Care - Our emergency department focuses
on the rapid diagnosis of chest pain and accelerated treatment of
coronary diseases and acute myocardial infarction (MI).
Medical
Team - Our medical staff is made up of board
certified specialists including cardiologists, surgeons and anesthesiologists.
Assisting the physicians are nurses and technicians from the emergency
department, catheterization laboratory, operating room, intensive
care and cardiac rehabilitation departments. Our team members are
ACLS certified, and many hold advanced credentials.
...close
to home.
The success
of any cardiovascular procedure depends on how quickly it occurs
after a heart attack begins - the more time that passes, the greater
the damage to the heart. The CardioVascular Institute ensures that
patients in Norfolk and the surrounding communities will be able
to receive rapid diagnosis and treatment, therby significantly improving
their chances of survival.
Patients and
their families no longer have to travel across the state to receive
comprehensive cardiovascular care. At Faith Regional, we believe
nothing is more comforting to a patient than knowing their care
is close to family and home.
The
CardioVascular Institute
We are committed
to reducing the incidence of heart disease in our region through
education and prevention. Our staff is available to speak at group
functions regarding cardiovascular disease, risk factors and the
benefits of a healthy lifestyle.
