SJCH is your home for cardiac and stroke care. Chest Pain Center: When it comes to your heart, what you eat and how you live matters. But did you know your hospital of choice matters too? As an Accredited Chest Pain Center, we have protocols in place that ensure we’re ready for you right when you need us. Don’t play games with your heart: If you’re experiencing chest pain, choose the hospital that’s one step ahead. Choose San Joaquin Community Hospital.

Stroke Center: It’s simple, really. If you’re suffering a stroke, time lost is brain lost. Make sure you know the signs and symptoms – numbness on one side of the body, trouble walking and sudden confusion, for example. Next? Make sure you get care at the hospital that brought Bakersfield its first Nationally ll Certified C ifi d Stroke Center: San Joaquin Community Hospital.

And they’re all under one roof! Only one hospital between Los Angeles and San Francisco has both a Nationally Certified Stroke Center and Nationally Accredited Chest Pain Center under one roof. The choice is clear: If you think you’re having a stroke or heart attack, call 911 and tell the ambulance to take you to San Joaquin Community Hospital.
