TriStar Greenview Regional Hospital earns national recognition for stroke care for 2026

Bowling Green, KY — TriStar Greenview Regional Hospital has received the American Heart Association’s Get With The Guidelines - Stroke Gold Plus with Target: Stroke Honor Roll Elite and Target Type 2 Diabetes quality achievement awards. The recognition highlights the hospital’s commitment to providing stroke patients with high-quality, evidence-based care that improves patient outcomes and reduces disability. 

Stroke is the fifth-leading cause of death and a primary cause of disability in the United States. It occurs when blood flow to the brain is blocked by a clot or bursts, leading to brain cell death. Early detection and treatment are key to improving survival, minimizing disability and accelerating recovery times.

We strive for excellence through continuous education, collaboration and providing resources to our clinical teams because those investments lead to better outcomes for our patients and the communities we serve.”
