Alton Memorial Hospital now has real-time access to some of the nation’s top stroke experts—even when they’re not onsite. AMH has begun using stroke telemedicine to receive direct care consults for complicated stroke patients. Phone, Internet and video conferencing allows Stroke Network neurologists and radiologists to be “remotely present” at distant hospitals.

It may not be as flashy as the Batmobile, but a “car” is turning heads as the newest addition to Alton Memorial’s Human Motion Institute Rehabilitation Services.

The Alton Memorial Hospital Emergency Medical Services (EMS) team is celebrating a big birthday. For 30 years, the area’s leading provider of emergency care has been providing services for you and your family when in need.

The mission of Alton Memorial Hospital extends well beyond the campus at 1 Memorial Drive. Alex Campbell, EMS coordinator for AMH, serves as the liaison between first responders to the hospital and the Illinois Department of Public Health. He is also the hospital resource to more than 35 agencies.
