Awards & Recognitions

From diagnosis to treatment to rehabilitation, Adventist HealthCare Heart & Vascular Institute delivers some of the nation’s highest-quality care.

Testing Accreditation

Effective treatment starts with the right diagnosis. That’s why Adventist HealthCare facilities chose to earn accreditation in cardiovascular testing from the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission. This proves we have the right staff, facilities, technology and processes to ensure your safety and accurate results.

Honored for Heart Attack Care

During a heart attack, every second counts. Shady Grove Medical Center and White Oak Medical Center have both earned American Heart Association awards for providing timely, effective care. Shady Grove has received the Mission: Lifeline® STEMI Receiving Center Gold Plus award. White Oak Medical Center has received the Mission: Lifeline STEMI & NSTEMI Gold awards. (STEMI refers to a completely blocked heart artery; NSTEMI involves a partial blockage.)

Shady Grove Medical Center is the second-busiest STEMI program in Maryland. Because we see many patients each year, we have the experience to stop heart attacks quickly—and save lives.

Chest Pain & Cath Lab Accreditations

Shady Grove Medical Center and White Oak Medical Center are the only hospitals in Montgomery County to hold Chest Pain Center with PCI accreditation from the American College of Cardiology. This recognition shows we’re experts in responding to heart attack symptoms, and we have treatment available 24/7 every day of the year.

Shady Grove Medical Center also holds cardiac catheterization lab accreditation with PCI. That means you can trust us to keep you safe and provide the information you and your family need to take care of you after you go home.

Top-Rated Heart Surgery Program

Achieve your best outcome after heart surgery when you choose White Oak Medical Center. We’ve earned the highest-possible rating from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons for bypass and valve procedures. That places us among the top 10% of hospitals in the nation for cardiac surgery.

Cardiac Rehab Certification

As you recover from heart surgery or a serious heart condition, regain strength safely with a cardiac rehabilitation program recognized by the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation (AACVPR). We’ve earned AACVPR certification at both of our program locations:

The Center for Fitness & Health at Adventist HealthCare Shady Grove Medical Center in Rockville
