Comprehensive Heart Care
The care our patients receive at St. Luke's Hospital is our number one priority. That's why we're proud to be among the hospitals and agencies recognized by the American Heart Association's Mission: Lifeline program for our excellence in improving quality of patient care. In addition, St. Luke's has demonstrated sustained achievement in ACTION Registry for eight consecutive quarters and met a performance standard of 90% for specific performance measures to receive the 2017 Platinum Performance Achievement Award. St. Luke's is just one of 193 hospitals nationwide to receive this honor.
When it comes to matters of the heart, turn to Siouxland's highest rated heart team, St. Luke's Cardiology Services and Cardiovascular Associates.
St. Luke's Hospital offers a full spectrum of advanced cardiovascular services.
St. Luke's cares for heart patients in a dedicated electrophysiology (EP) and cardiac catheterization labs. Just steps away from St. Luke's Emergency Department (ED), the location of our labs is one of the reasons our door-to-balloon times are faster than the national average. This means less time is needed between the patient's arrival in the ED to when they are moved to the cardiac cath lab to receive heart care. In the end, this means less heart muscle will be lost and the patient's outcome will be better.
- The cardiac catheterization lab is equipped with an imaging and hemodynamic monitoring system which monitors and visualizes blood circulation to carefully track and record heart function.
- The EP lab has advanced equipment, such as the Siemens Biplane, which creates improved visualization, because multiple images of the heart can be seen at one time.

- Starting with diagnosis, St. Luke's pathologists and radiologists are here to detect signs of cancer, even at its earliest stages.

The Levitt Guest Center, located at St. Luke's just down the hall from the Bomgaars Center for Cancer Care, was created through a generous gift by Nancy Levitt Rosenthal of Sioux City in memory of her first husband, David Levitt, who died of pancreatic cancer.
This guest center offers family members quiet suites with private baths where they can rest and renew their spirits. Up to seven families can stay in the guest center at one time.
Because of Mrs. Rosenthal's significant gift, there is no charge to stay at the Levitt Center. Gifts of $20 or more per night are welcome and are used to help maintain the facility so others may enjoy its proximity and comfort for years to come.

The new surgical area is completed and includes new surgery suites, recovery and pre- and post-operative areas and a comfortable waiting area.
