About the Hospital
As a two-hospital, 320-bed full-service health system, EASTAR Health System provides a comprehensive range of medical services and high quality care. We are a forward thinking, innovative hospital where trust, teamwork and technology come together to make a positive difference in the health of our community and region. Our Joint Commission accreditation powerfully demonstrates our commitment to meet the highest national standards for quality and safety. And the entire system boasts all-private patient rooms.
As one of the first hospitals established in Oklahoma, the west campus of EASTAR Health (formerly Muskogee Regional Medical Center) has grown to become one of the state's largest and most comprehensive facilities.
The many services include a Cancer Treatment Center featuring the Novalis TX Radiosurgery with RapidArc, one of the most modern, efficient and effective weapons in the fight against cancer. Eastar Health is the only facility in Eastern Oklahoma to have the Novalis TX, and one of only four in the state.
The newly remodeled Emergency Department has the distinction of being a Level III Trauma Center as well as a Primary Stroke Center. Our Cardiac Catheterization Lab is one of few facilities in the region that uses the radial approach on a majority of patients, which is more comfortable and provides less risk. Additionally, patients receive the benefit of the same person at intake, treatment and recovery, allowing for better patient-caregiver relationship. Other cardiac services provided at EASTAR Health include EKG, Cardiac Ultrasound, Nuclear Scanning, Holter Monitoring, Stress Testing, Transesophageal Endoscopy and Pacemaker Insertion.
The surgical wing features eight advanced operating suites, Same Day Surgery with private family waiting bays, Endoscopy and Total Joint Replacement. Our Comprehensive Rehabilitation Center takes an interdisciplinary approach and offers inpatient, outpatient and acute services, featuring physical, speech, and occupational therapy.
There are also fully integrated Home Health Services, a full array of Women's Services featuring; a family centered labor/delivery, Certified Breast Feeding Advisors, Community Education classes, Pediatrics and Gynecology, and Providence Imaging, offering a comfortable and serene atmosphere for tests such as mammograms. The hospital's Imaging Department recently added Stereotactic Breast Biopsy Services. Finally, EASTAR Health houses The Pavilion, an inpatient behavioral health unit.
The Community
Muskogee is proud of its excellent school systems, which includes two junior colleges and a four-year university. The city boasts of wealth of museums and historical sites that showcase its proud heritage and rich legacy, including Three Rivers Museum, Five Civilized Tribes Museum, Muskogee War Memorial Park, Thomas-Foreman Historical Home, The Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame, and the recently renovated Roxy Theater which hosts numerous events.
The 122-acre Honor Heights Park, one of the oldest and most famous city parks in America, features 400 acres of manicured gardens and over 30,000 azaleas. The park hosts the world famous Azalea Festival, which attracts more than 300,000 each year.
Just up the road is the city of Tulsa, home of the Tulsa Performing Arts Center, the Tulsa Ballet and Symphony, two major art museums (Philbrook and Gilcrease), and the Tulsa Zoo as well as five professional sports teams in baseball, football, soccer, basketball and hockey.
Recreation
The Green Country surrounding Muskogee is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, featuring an abundance of lakes, rivers and streams for fishing as well as wilderness areas for hunting. Muskogee is surrounded by four lakes, Ft. Gibson, Tenkiller, Eufau
