LETTER TO EDITOR
Proven Experience Counts
by MIKE NAGOWSKI
Whenever I'm out in the
community, I enjoy hearing folks
talk about their experiences at Cape
Fear Valley. Many of you take great
pride in our community's hospital,
and rightly so.
Cape Fear Valley Health is your
hospital. It exists to serve you.
Everything we do is designed to
provide you and your family with
the services you need to keep your
family healthy
and to help you
recover when
illness or injury
strikes.
That's why
we offer 11
primary care
practices and
11 specialty
practices and
services such
as a level
III neonatal
intensive care
unit and a pediatric intensive care
unit. Many hospitals don't offer
these services, leaving them to the
academic medical centers. We feel
you shouldn't have to travel an hour
to 90 minutes for care when you
have a premature baby or a critically
ill child.
We also have an expanding
trauma program with a helicopter
from Carolina Air Care stationed
at Cape Fear Valley full time. This
is important because trauma is
the leading cause of death for
people ages 44 and younger. Up
to a quarter of these deaths can
be prevented if optimal care is
immediately available.
Recently, we entered into an
agreement with the Cumberland
County Board of Commissioners
and Alliance Behavioral Health to

provide additional mental health
services to our community. We
are renovating the Roxie Center
to accommodate a walk-in mental
health clinic for patients in crisis.
And we've been enhancing
many of our core services,
like heart failure and stoke, by
earning specialty accreditation
from The Joint Commission. We
have also earned accreditations
and certifications in other areas,
including hip and knee replacement
surgery, bariatric surgery, sleep
medicine, breast care, cancer
treatment and cardiac care.
This past March, Becker's
Hospital Review named Cape Fear
Valley one of the "100 Hospitals
With Great Neurosurgery and Spine
Programs." We are very proud to
be listed alongside such nationally
known hospitals as Cedars-Sinai
Medical Center in Los Angeles and
Johns Hopkins in Baltimore.
You won't find another health
system from the triangle to the
coast with the scope of services
offered at Cape Fear Valley
Health. And you won't find one as
committed to your family's health.
Michael Nagowski, CEO
Cape Fear Valley Health System.
