In its 2012 results, HealthGrades® has recognized the quality of stroke care at Lourdes by once again bestowing upon the program the Stroke Care Excellence Award™.
Lourdes has an interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, comprised of physicians, nurses, occupational, physical and speech therapists, social workers, psychologists, and dietitians who provide patients with comprehensive treatment options.
