Area residents know that Bluffton Hospital has a big heart as it cares for its patients.
A national accreditation commission reaffirmed that fact recently.
Earlier this year the hospital received “seal of approval” for the third time affirming its echocardiography laboratory provides a high level of patient care and quality testing when diagnosing heart disease.
The hospital’s cardiopulmonary department earned echocardiography reaccreditation from the Intersocietal Accreditation Commission.
