ABOUT NCH

NCH is one of the most progressive healthcare organizations in the country. More than just a few hospitals, NCH is an alliance of more than 700 independent physicians and medical facilities in dozens of locations throughout Collier County and Southwest Florida. Not only do we offer advanced comprehensive care, but we also embrace new, effective ideas in medical care and healing.

Exceptional Choices for Patients

As our guest, we extend to you a warm welcome on behalf of the board of trustees, the medical staff, volunteers and all NCH personnel. We will do everything in our power to provide friendly, professional care in a comfortable environment.

NCH believes that good health care begins with patient choice. We know that everyone relies on his or her doctor as a guide through medical concerns. And we know that quality care in convenient settings is important. That’s why we offer a wide range of choice in services, physicians and locations.

Naples Most Comprehensive Care

People know NCH is the only place they can be sure of getting all the care they need. Only  NCH offers advanced heartcancerobstetricnewborn and pediatric care.

Our NCH Heart Institute offers the most progressive cardiac care in Southwest Florida. We use direct infarct angioplasty “Code Save-A-Heart” in a new way to treat heart attacks by unblocking arteries immediately.

The NCH Regional Cancer Institute provides comprehensive, patient-centered care and hope: hope for the patient, hope for family and friends, and hope for a future when cancer is controlled, if not cured.

NCH is on the cusp of delivering the most innovative medical care for stroke victims – the “Brain Attack” program, patterned after our nationally-recognized Code Save-A Heart program, capitalizes on our extraordinary core competency of recognizing and quickly treating life-threatening conditions.

Outstanding Medical Care, A Progressive Approach

NCH Baker Hospital Downtown and NCH North Naples Hospital provide personalized care for over 40,500 patients a year in our two-hospital, 716 bed system. NCH’s outstanding reputation is confirmed by The Joint Commission, in its award of accreditation to both NCH hospitals.

NCH Charity Care

As an independent, non-profit we boldly pursue our mission to help people live happier, healthier and longer lives. One way we fulfill our mission is by serving our community’s greatest healthcare needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Mayo clinic care network is a unique collaboration that connects NCH physicians to the latest Mayo Clinic expertise and clinical care resources through the use of electronic care reference and communication tools.

NCH was selected to join the Mayo clinic care network because we share a common philosophy, commitment and mission to improve the delivery of healthcare through high quality, data-driven, evidence-based medical care and treatment. In addition, NCH had to pass a rigorous review process based on quality, service and operational criteria to be selected for participation.

NCH, in partnership with our medical staff and nurses, has made tremendous progress in our approach to care based on the latest medical knowledge and best practices from leaders in health care. This new collaboration will assist us as we continue to seek out the latest research and treatment recommendations from the experts at Mayo Clinic.

NCH physicians will have access to the latest Mayo Clinic expertise and clinical care resources to use when treating our patients. These resources include:

  • AskMayoExpert: a state-of-the-art online tool that makes available Mayo Clinic’s knowledge in disease management, clinical care guidelines, treatment recommendations and reference materials for a variety of medical conditions.
  • eConsults: connects NCH physicians with Mayo Clinic experts when NCH physicians want additional input regarding a patient’s care.

This agreement is not an acquisition or merger. Mayo clinic care network members like NCH remain independent healthcare providers.

No, there is no obligation for referrals to Mayo Clinic. The primary goal of the Mayo Clinic Care Network is to help more patients gain the benefits of Mayo Clinic knowledge and expertise close to home, ensuring they need travel outside the region only when necessary.
