When Washington Sanitarium first opened in 1907, it was Montgomery County's first cardiac center. [7] Today, more than 400 open-heart surgeries and 5,000 interventional cardiology procedures are performed annually at the hospital. [8]

The founding of Washington Sanitarium by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in 1907 was the beginning of the Adventist HealthCare system. [9] After World War I, the Washington Sanitarium began its transition from a long-term to an acute-care facility. [10] It changed its name to Washington Sanitarium and Hospital and added an acute-care hospital building for surgical, obstetric and emergency cases. [11]

Next to the sanitarium, the Adventist Church built a college now called Washington Adventist University. The first group of nurses graduated from the hospital in 1909; nurses later received their training at the college, a program that will expand with the School of Health Professions, Science and Wellness, a partnership with Washington Adventist Hospital and Adventist HealthCare, to increase the number of health care professionals in Maryland. [12]

Dr. Lauretta E. Kress, wife of the hospital's medical director, Dr. Daniel H. Kress, was the first female surgeon in Montgomery County. [13] In 1916, she opened a maternity ward and during her hospital career delivered more than 5,000 babies. In 1940, the hospital added the Lisner wing; 10 years later, it added a six-story addition. A special procedures room was built in 1959 to study the heart, kidneys, brain and other organs. In 1962, the Intensive Care Unit, the second to operate in a metropolitan hospital, opened.

The hospital built a $14 million five-story wing and changed its name to Washington Adventist Hospital in 1973. [9] Developments over the next decades included the opening of a Short Stay Surgery Unit in 1977 and a critical care modernization in the early 1990s. Washington Adventist Hospital opened the first Chest Pain Center in the D.C. area in 1992. [14]

In 2005, the hospital created a Vision for Expanded Access to address inequalities in access to health care. [15] As part of the vision, Adventist HealthCare created the Center on Health Disparities [16] [17]

In October 2014, as part of a branding initiative to emphasize the Adventist HealthCare system name, the hospital's name changed from Washington Adventist Hospital to Adventist HealthCare Washington Adventist Hospital. [18]

To ensure access to health care for the under-served in the community, Washington Adventist Hospital has partnered with several community organizations including the Mercy Health Clinic, [19] [20] Mary's Center for Maternal and Child Care [21] [22] [23] and CASA de Maryland's Multicultural Center in Langley Park. [24]

The Center on Health Disparities also works to train interpreters as Qualified Bilingual staff that are available to assist patients and their families who may not speak English, during a medical encounter. [25] [26] [27]

In August 2019 Adventist HealthCare Washington Adventist Hospital changed its name and moved, when students and faculty from Howard University helped to move 76 patients and equipment to the newly built Adventist HealthCare White Oak Medical Center. [28] [29]

Medical services

The hospital provides medical and non-medical services for men and women. Medical services include cardiology, maternity services, orthopedics, oncology, radiology, wound care, surgical services, special care services, and emergency services. [30] [31]

Cardiac and vascular services

Washington Adventist Hospital expanded its cardiac services in 2010, adding a new medical director of cardiac surgery and team of surgeons from Cardiac Vascular and Thoracic Surgery Associates (CVTSA) [32] [33] [34] [35] Washington Adventist Hospital was the first in the region to perform open-heart surgery and numerous cardiac procedures, including mitral valvuloplasty, and the first in the mid-Atlantic to perform a revolutionary type of surgery called Mini- Maze that can correct atrial fibrillation (AF), a common form of heart rhythm abnormality and a major cause of stroke.[ citation needed ]

Washington Adventist Hospital also claims to be a recognized leader in the transradial approach to cardiac catheterizations, which allows interventional cardiologists to use an artery in the wrist to gain access to heart arteries. In November 2013, the hospital became the first Transradial Catheterization Training Center in Maryland, allowing physicians from around the country to learn from Washington Adventist Hospital cardiologists how to perform this innovative, interventional heart procedure. [14] Washington Adventist Hospital's board-certified cardiologists, electrophysiologists, interventional radiologists and cardiac and vascular surgeons provide the following cardiac and vascular care.

Center for Cardiac and Vascular Research

The Center for Cardiac & Vascular Research [37] (CCVR) actively enrolls subjects in a variety of clinical research studies based on each subject's needs. CCVR is involved in cardiology clinical research trials that range from arrhythmia treatments, to heart failure therapies, to therapies for the treatment of angina and heart attacks. Patients have access to some therapies researched and developed by the hospital's physicians.

Cancer care

The oncology program at Washington Adventist Hospital is one of 1,400 oncology programs in the country accredited as a Community Hospital Comprehensive Cancer Program by the American College of Surgeons. [38] Inpatient Cancer Treatments include diagnosis, surgery, blood transfusions, antibiotic therapy, chemotherapy, pain management, sickle-cell crisis treatment, treatment for the side effects of cancer therapy. [39] Outpatient Cancer Treatments include blood and platelet transfusions, chemotherapy, blood Draws, IV hydration, Infusion of interferon, injection of growth factors such as neupogen and epogen. [40] The Radiation Oncology Program at Washington Adventist Hospital was the first hospital-based facility in Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties and in the Washington Metropolitan area to be accredited by the American College of Radiation Oncology (ACRO). Other oncology services include Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) and Partial Breast Irradiation. [41]
