BCMC Recognized for Advancing Rural Stroke Care
People who live in rural communities live an average of three years fewer than urban counterparts and have a 40% higher likelihood of developing heart disease and face a 30% increased risk for stroke mortality, according to an American Heart Association’s presidential advisory on rural health. Bradley County Medical Center is committed to changing that.
For its efforts to optimize stroke care and reduce gaps in rural health outcomes, BCMC has received the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines® - Stroke Rural Recognition Bronze award.
Stroke is the No. 4 cause of death and a leading cause of disability in the U.S, according to the American Heart Association’s 2026 Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics Report. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel supplying the brain is blocked by a clot or ruptures, preventing blood and oxygen from reaching brain tissue. When this happens, brain cells begin to die. Early detection and rapid treatment are critical to improving survival, minimizing disability and supporting faster recovery.

Community Education
Bradley County Medical Center is happy to offer free health education to the community with different events throughout the year.
Recently, BCMC has partnered with CURA Hospitality (the hospital's dietary provider) to hold several events that are free of charge and open to the public.
The BeWell Campaign is CURA's approach to helping people eat healthier and make better decisions about their nutrition. Healthy menu options in the BCMC Cafe are marked with a blueberry icon. There are also BeWell Communications Board around the facility as well that guide staff and visitors toward healthier eating habits.
Some of the topics covered through the public nutrition education events so far are meal-prep strategies, the connection between nutrition and sleep, the role of your diet in bone health, and the role food can play in stress management.
Additionally, BCMC has partnered with CURA to hold several Diabetic Education Classes with general education about the disease along with how to navigate the holidays if you're a diabetic or care for someone who is.
Stay tuned to BCMC's social media platforms to find out when the next classes will be.
If you are needing help with nutrition or just have questions about your diet you can ask a dietitian by phone at 870-226-4344 or by email at BCMCaskadietitian@curahospitality.com.
