BCMC Recognized as a Top 100 Critical Access Hospital by The Chartis Center for Rural Health
Bradley County Medical Center has been recognized as a 2023 Top 100 Critical Access Hospital by The Chartis Center for Rural Health. This annual recognition program honors outstanding performance among the nation's rural hospitals based on the results of the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX™.
BCMC was one of just four Critical Access Hospitals in Arkansas to earn Top 100 status. Currently there are 28 Critical Access Hospitals in Arkansas and 1,360 across the entire United States.
"The hospital business is a tough business to be in right now," BCMC CEO/CFO Leslie Huitt remarked. "Some days the challenges seem insurmountable. Then, recognition like this comes along and helps us all to remember our why. Quality hometown care matters! I am extremely proud of the care that BCMC provides to our community. BCMC will continue to do great things. This is just the beginning."
Surgery Department
The Bradley County Medical Center Surgery Department is staffed with highly skilled Registered Nurses, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists, Licensed Practical Nurses, Certified Surgical Technologists, and Sterile Central Technicians. Our nurses are all certified in advanced cardiac life support. We are available to perform surgery 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Along with our skilled surgical team, we are privileged to have many talented physicians at our hospital.
Our surgery department has recently been remodeled. Included in our new addition are two new nurses' stations, a brand new post anesthesia care unit, offices for management and anesthesia, and storage rooms. The surgical staff and physicians are very proud of our newly remodeled department. Our post anesthesia care unit has five beds available. It is staffed with registered nurses who will follow you through your surgery. For consistency, this registered nurse will continue to follow you throughout your immediate post-op recovery.
We have performed over almost 400 scopes to view the inside of the stomach and the colon in the past year. These scopes can help detect disorder and cancer of the digestive system. Tests like these can often be life-saving.
If your physician schedules you for a procedure at our facility, you will be contacted by our nursing staff. At this time, they will set up a pre-op visit with you. During a pre-op visit, you will speak with someone from the business office to collect your payment information. One of our registered nurses will collect information about your medical history. Lab work and other pre-op testing may ordered at this time. We will also discuss with you, what you should expect on the day of surgery.
When choosing a facility for your next surgical procedure, keep BCMC surgery in mind. We perform many of the same procedures as the larger hospitals, only closer to home.
If you have any questions regarding a procedure that may be performed in our surgery department, feel free to contact us at 870-226-4157.
