Hospital recognized for Best Hospital, Best Emergency Room and Best Cardiology

In its first year serving the Treasure Coast, Florida Coast Medical Center has earned three TCPalm Treasure Coast Community’s Choice Awards, receiving top honors for:

• Best Hospital
• Best Emergency Room
• Best Cardiology

The awards reflect the community’s support for Florida Coast Medical Center and its growing role in providing advanced, high-quality healthcare close to home.

“Earning three Community’s Choice Awards in our first year is an incredible honor and a meaningful sign that we are earning the trust of the people we serve,” said Tyler Sherrill, chief executive officer of Florida Coast Medical Center. “These awards belong to our physicians, nurses, team members and leadership, as well as our EMS and community partners. Most importantly, they belong to the patients and families who welcomed us, trusted us with their care and voted for us. Our goal has always been to keep exceptional care and rewarding healthcare careers local, and this recognition reinforces our place as a trusted partner in the Treasure Coast community.”

Florida Coast Medical Center opened with a vision to expand access to healthcare for residents of St. Lucie County and the surrounding region. Since then, the hospital has continued to grow its services, including emergency care, cardiac care, electrophysiology, vascular care, surgery and advanced diagnostic imaging.

The Community’s Choice Awards are determined by local nominations and voting, making the three honors especially meaningful to the hospital’s team. The recognition reflects the relationships Florida Coast Medical Center has built with patients, families, first responders, physicians and community organizations during its inaugural year.

“While we are proud of how far we have come, we are only getting started,” Sherrill added. “We will continue listening to our community, investing in our people and expanding access to the advanced services Treasure Coast families need and deserve.”
