Listen to your heart...


Mary Gruber, registered nurse, helped create the Women's Heart Advantage screening program through Health East Care System 6 years ago. She and 8 other nurses and a nutritionist offered free heart health screenings at Byerly's grocery store on Saturday, one of 8 Twin Cities locations this month. February is "Go Red for Women" heart month!

Great logo for the service, and the red is certainly an attention getter. Incidentally, the link did not work for me.

Warm congratulations to this team and to you,
because you're making known to the public !!
Best regards from Greece

I have read about the Go Red for Women program several times. Many women are not aware that heart disease is one of the top killers of women. This local porogram is a good one.

Thanks for the restored link, Leif. I read the material and altho I'm familiar with it, others may not be and it certainly is a good review for me and others who have the information. I need constant reminders.

Excellent photo for a good cause...I read the list and I'm not too at risk, but it's scary.

These are great. My mother in law found out she had dangerously high blood pressure at one of these type of events
