Peconic Bay Medical Center Receives Prestigious American Heart Association/American Stroke Association Honor - Long Island, NY

I wish they would just stop doing this, This is fucking useless because without a focus on results we are never going to make progress in stroke.
These are NOT result awards so they don't tell you anything about how good the program is. Call that hospital president( Andy Mitchell) and demand to know what the RESULTS are; 30 day deaths, 100% recovery.
There is absolutely nothing in here that tells me that the RESULTS are better in this hospital than other hospitals. I don't give a crap about how well you do processes.
Big f*cking whoopee.
Guidelines here: You can see how this is nothing to be impressed about. This is all indirect action, not results.
