American Heart Association

Mosaic Medical Center Maryville has received four achievement awards from the American Heart Association for following evidence-based guidelines in the treatment of stroke and coronary artery disease patients.

During American Stroke Month, the American Heart Association is expanding its stroke warning acronym. For years, people were taught to remember 'F.A.S.T.' Now, health experts in Missouri and across the country are urging residents to learn 'B.E. F.A.S.T.' – adding two additional warning signs that could help people recognize a stroke sooner and seek life-saving treatment faster.
