The Next Generation of Heart Care
At Providence Everett
Our community is growing and aging. Exceptional heart and vascular care close to home has never mattered more. Your investment in the latest technology, advanced tools and innovative treatments can enhance care and save lives.
Comprehensive and Top-Ranked Care
Providence Regional Medical Center Everett has earned a national reputation for excellence in cardiac care, consistently receiving honors for outstanding patient outcomes. Extensive experience in a broad range of heart and vascular care plays a key role in this success. Providence Everett performs more cardiovascular procedures than almost any other hospital in the state.
Our community’s continued investment in this important work has directly enhanced patient outcomes. Over the years, donors have played a major role in equipping Providence with the advanced tools and technology needed to successfully treat patients, using a variety of ways to help them heal.
Your Impact
Healthcare is facing unprecedented financial challenges. Nationwide, rising supply and labor costs, inadequate and delayed insurance reimbursements and, most recently, deep government funding cuts have strained resources needed to sustain high-quality care. At the same time, a growing and aging population creates a greater demand for care than ever before.
Together, these challenges may affect access to exceptional, local care. With your partnership, we can weather this storm and keep world-class cardiovascular care close to home.
Innovative, Life-Saving Technology
As research and technology advance, we need your support to continue offering equipment, expertise and exceptional clinicians to treat all kinds of conditions, from blockages to rhythm irregularities or structural abnormalities. With your help, our teams will have the best-in-class tools when you or someone you love needs cardiovascular care.
Preventing Heart Disease
Heart and vascular care isn’t just about treating symptoms. Providence also invests in educational programs for the prevention of heart disease. Your support equips our clinicians with the tools to educate our community about heart health, diagnose and treat conditions in their earliest stages, and try to keep people from needing extensive cardiovascular interventions.
Research and Rehabilitation
Because of research, we can now treat patients in innovative, low-invasive ways that weren't even imaginable a few decades ago. Philanthropy powers clinical excellence that leads to breakthroughs in treatments that save and enhance lives.
Cardiac rehabilitation has been clinically proven to improve the lifespan and quality of life after a diagnosis or treatment of a heart-related event. Your support can help rehabilitate patients so they can get back to their families—and their lives—healthy and whole.
A Black Lab & a Cath Lab Saved His Life
George Schlosser spent an April morning with chainsaw in hand, clearing brush near his Lake Stevens home. His wife, Lynn, was about to take their
dogs for a walk in the woods. Maple, their young black lab, gets spooked by the chainsaw, so George took a break while Lynn and the dogs walked past.
No one could have predicted what followed—or that little Maple’s fear might play a role in saving George’s life.
As the retired volunteer firefighter walked toward the couple’s house, he felt a twinge of pain. “I must have pulled a muscle in my chest,” he thought.
He walked a bit further: “I’m really sweating. I guess I was working hard.”
By the time George reached the house, he couldn’t deny the signs. “I had the proverbial elephant sitting on my chest. I knew I was having a heart attack.”
