Boone Health EMS recognized as Pediatric Ready by Missouri EMS for Children. September 9, 2026 Pediatric Ready recognition reflects Boone Health EMS' commitment to preparedness and excellence in caring for children during emergencies. Boone Health Emergency Medical Services (EMS) has been recognized as Pediatric Ready by Missouri EMS for Children through the Pediatric Readiness and Excellence Program (Peds PREP), demonstrating the department's diligence in providing high-quality emergency care for children in the community. "This recognition reflects our team's commitment to being prepared for every patient we encounter, including our youngest patients," said Josh Peak, chief of Boone Health EMS. "Pediatric emergencies can present distinctive challenges, and achieving Pediatric Ready status demonstrates that our team has the equipment and training in place to provide children and their families with the highest level of care possible when they need us most." The Pediatric Readiness and Excellence Program provides a framework for EMS agencies to evaluate and strengthen their ability to respond to the emergency medical needs of pediatric patients. To achieve Pediatric Ready recognition, Boone Health EMS completed a comprehensive review of its pediatric equipment and its readiness for emergencies. The team ensured that all of its paramedics and EMTs has received appropriate training, created or updated any necessary policies, and continually holds readiness practices. A key component of the process was establishing a Pediatric Emergency Care Coordinator, who helps support pediatric readiness efforts and promotes ongoing education, quality improvement and preparedness for pediatric emergencies. Mike McKeon, lead training officer for Boone Health EMS, was named the Pediatric Emergency Care Coordinator. Peak said that Mckeon's leadership and commitment were instrumental throughout the Pediatric Ready process. McKeon helped guide the department through the requirements and ensure the team was prepared to meet the program's standards. "Becoming Pediatric Ready is more than completing a checklist," McKeon said. "It's about making sure our team is continually prepared to care for children and support families during what can be an incredibly stressful and frightening experience. I'm proud of the work our entire EMS team put into achieving this recognition." Posted in Blog

Boone Health earns renewal of Level I STEMI Center designation, reinforcing commitment to exceptional heart attack care. June 23, 2026 Boone Health maintains the highest level of heart care while earning recognition as the state's top hospital for the lowest readmissions rates and a Top 100 Socially Responsible Hospital. COLUMBIA, Mo. - Boone Health has successfully completed its renewal survey and received redesignation as a Level I STEMI Center by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS), reaffirming its ability to provide the highest level of care for patients experiencing severe heart attacks. "Receiving redesignation as a Level I STEMI Center is a testament to the dedication, expertise and teamwork of our physicians, nurses, emergency responders and support staff," said Brady Dubois, CEO of Boone Health. "This recognition reflects our unwavering commitment to providing exceptional care close to home and ensuring Mid-Missouri patients have access to life-saving cardiac treatment when every minute matters." The Level I STEMI (ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction) designation recognizes hospitals that meet rigorous standards for the rapid diagnosis and treatment of the most serious types of heart attacks. To maintain this designation, hospitals must undergo a comprehensive review process every three years. The redesignation adds to a growing list of recent recognitions for Boone Health. Recently, Boone Health was recognized by Becker's Hospital Review as the top hospital in the state and the only hospital in the mid-Missouri region with the lowest hospital readmission rates. Nationally, Boone Health was recognized as a top 100 hospital for its low readmission rates, which measure how often a patient is readmitted within 30 days for the same condition. The recognition further highlights the organization's commitment to quality outcomes and patient-centered care. This is especially critical given Boone's redesignation as a Level I STEMI center. "When they come to Boone, patients are not only receiving the best possible care, but they also have the best chance of not returning to the hospital for the same condition," said Lana Zerrer, Boone Health chief medical officer. "Whether it is to treat chronic medical conditions, undergo elective surgeries or respond to cardiac emergencies, our physicians, providers and medical staff are dedicated to getting you back on your feet, doing the things you love." Boone Health also was named among the nation's Top 100 Most Socially Responsible Hospitals by the Lown Institute Hospitals Index. Ranked among more than 2,700 acute care hospitals nationwide, Boone Health was recognized as the third most socially responsible hospital in Missouri. The rankings measure hospitals on factors such as clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, patient safety, cost efficiency, avoiding overuse of healthcare services that are more likely to harm patients, resources the hospital uses for financial assistance and other community health initiatives, inclusivity, and pay equity throughout the organization. As a Level I STEMI Center, Boone Health maintains advanced cardiac capabilities, including 24/7 access to cardiac catheterization services, rapid treatment protocols and close coordination with emergency medical services across the region. These resources help ensure patients experiencing a heart attack receive prompt treatment that can significantly improve outcomes and save lives. Posted in Blog
