UNC Health Nash marks 10 years of national recognition in heart and stroke care
For the 10th consecutive year, UNC Health Nash has earned national recognition for excellence in heart and stroke care, placing the organization among an elite group of hospitals nationwide that demonstrate sustained, high‑quality performance in lifesaving treatment. The honors, awarded by the American Heart Association, the American Stroke Association and the American College of Cardiology underscore a decade of consistency, expertise and commitment to patient outcomes. The recognition comes alongside another milestone: U.S. News & World Report has named UNC Health Nash “high performing” in heart attack, heart failure and stroke in its 2025–26 Best Hospitals report. This is a distinction awarded to only a fraction of hospitals nationwide. For UNC Health Nash President and CEO Dr. L. Lee Isley, the achievement reflects more than clinical skill. It represents a culture. “Reaching a 10th consecutive year of national recognition is a remarkable milestone and a powerful reflection of the expertise, consistency and dedication of our heart and stroke teams,” Isley said. “Earning these distinctions year after year reflects our commitment to strengthening and advancing the care we provide while upholding the high standards our patients and communities have come to expect.” UNC Health Nash’s honors span multiple programs and specialties.
