When her husband suffered a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm, the decision to go to Mount Carmel St. Ann’s was everything.
Because your health is everything. Sue knows. Not just because she’s a nurse at Mount Carmel St. Ann’s. But because of what happened the morning her husband, Bill, suddenly collapsed at home. The emergency team stabilized Bill for a CT scan that revealed a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. A vascular surgeon prepared for emergency surgery. Hours later, the surgeon came out to share the news with Sue. Bill’s surgery was a success. Sue said, simply: “Thank you for giving my husband back to me.” Experiences like this happen every day at Mount Carmel St. Ann’s. Where our award-winning team of cardiovascular experts provide the most comprehensive heart and vascular services. Because as Sue and Bill know, your health is everything. Mount Carmel St. Ann’s. Everything a regional medical center should be. Because of you.
