Kara Snider, BSN, RN, Emergency Room Nurse Manager at North Arkansas Regional Medical Center has received the inaugural Stroke Champion Award from the Arkansas Acute Stroke Care Task Force in recognition of her leadership in strengthening stroke care and improving outcomes for patients treated at NARMC!

Through her work in the emergency department, Kara saw firsthand how critical the moments before a patient arrives at the hospital can be in determining stroke outcomes. Wanting to better understand that part of the process, she chose to become a licensed EMT, gaining firsthand insight into stroke recognition and transport in the field.

That perspective has helped strengthen NARMC’s stroke program and support the rapid treatment stroke patients need when every second counts.

The results of that work are measurable. NARMC’s stroke team maintains an average door-to-needle treatment time of 45 minutes, with a best time of 24 minutes, exceeding the American Heart Association guideline recommending treatment within 60 minutes for eligible stroke patients.

We're so proud to see Kara’s leadership and dedication recognized! 💙

NARMC was recently recognized by the Arkansas Department of Health for excellence in supporting stroke patients as they transition from hospital care to recovery!

Our ICU Nursing and Case Management teams received the Stroke Transitions of Care Award, an honor given to only two hospitals in Arkansas this year.

Behind the scenes, these teams work closely with patients and families to ensure they leave the hospital with the education, resources, and guidance needed to continue recovery after a stroke.

Their work plays a vital role in supporting patients during one of the most vulnerable moments of their lives, and we are proud to see their dedication recognized.

March 8–14, 2026 is Sleep Awareness Week, a time when the National Sleep Foundation highlights the powerful connection between sleep and overall health and well-being.

💤Did You Know?

Most adults need 7–9 hours of sleep each night to function at their best. Getting too little sleep has been linked to a variety of health concerns, including high blood pressure, weight gain, reduced immunity, and depression. Quality sleep also affects mood, concentration, and overall well-being.

If you wake up feeling tired, snore loudly, or struggle to stay asleep, it may be more than just a restless night.

Our NARMC Sleep Center is here to help! Our specialists work with you and your physician to identify sleep issues and develop a treatment plan so you can get the healthy, restful sleep you deserve.
