Coliseum Heart Institute

The Coliseum Heart Institute is a full-service cardiac institution that offers services once only available at larger institutions and can perform any heart procedure needed.  We are honored that Coliseum Heart Institute was recently named a Mission: Lifeline hospital. This certification requires institutions to adhere to rigorous standards of excellence in timely treatment of ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) heart attacks.  As the only cardiac institution in the area with that honor, Coliseum works diligently to ensure every STEMI case receives immediate attention.

Coliseum also recently received full Cycle III accreditation with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from the Accreditation Review Committee. When time is of the essence, our accredited Chest Pain Center seal can provide reassurance that Coliseum is a hospital you can trust to provide the best possible outcomes in heart care.

For the last several months, we’ve been building an unprecedented partnership. It provides
something much needed to Middle Georgia—total care for the heart. Comprised of some of the
most respected cardiologists and electrophysiologists in the region, this partnership means these physicians will work side-by-side with the dedicated staff at our very own Coliseum Heart Institute to ensure that patients receive the most comprehensive cardiac care possible.

Dial 911 Don't Drive Coliseum

Coliseum Health System, through Dial Don't Drive Coliseum, is working to decrease the time between the onset of  cardiac symptoms and hospital treatment by promoting the use of 911 for possible heart related emergencies. While in transit, EMS can initially diagnose a heart attack, and transmit full 12-lead EKG information from transporting ambulances to one of the Coliseum hospitals, triggering activation of the hospital's emergency catheterization team and rapid intervention upon patient arrival.
