CVRC designation does not prove the cath lab is available

For suspected or identified acute MI, the OCEMS chest-pain standing order requires base contact for a CVRC with an available catheterization laboratory.
This list is not a live availability or diversion feed.
Transmit and communicate the 12-lead according to current agency and base-hospital workflow; do not let a normal tracing override a concerning clinical presentation.

Current cardiovascular receiving centers

Thirteen hospitals appear on OCEMS Policy 240.40, effective January 1, 2026.
The facility list establishes designation. Base contact and current system status determine the operational destination.

Recognize suspected ACS or an anginal equivalent, obtain an early 12-lead, and treat under the applicable standing order.
For suspected or identified acute MI, contact base and report symptoms, onset, serial 12-lead findings, rhythm, vital-sign trends, medications, contraindications, and response.
Use the base-directed CVRC with an available catheterization laboratory. A hospital's appearance on this page alone is not a transport assignment.
Continue reassessment and repeat the 12-lead when the clinical picture changes or the initial tracing is nondiagnostic.

The 12-lead interpretation guide covers acquisition quality, STEMI patterns, reciprocal change, occlusion equivalents, and mimics.
The chest-pain guide contains current medication and destination steps.
