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 APRIL 7-13, 2010 VOLUME 15 ISSUE 14 y's ing Weekl Up & Com Now e! n Onli iful.com lebeaut yettevil www.fa Cumberland County Library Presents The Big Read 8 Home Instead Senior Care Cumberland Matters Focus on Fayetteville INSIDE SEPT 25 - OCT 1, 2013 E SID IN e E sid e id ATIn s Dte In da UP Up 2010 om mingweekly.c www.upandco Fayetteville Beautiful It Starts with You.

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.
