Heart health fairs were held throughout the Mount Sinai Health System in honor of Go Red for Women Day® on Friday, February 1.
The fairs, which attracted more than 1,000 participants, provided free screenings for blood pressure, total cholesterol, triglyceride levels, and body mass index.
The events recognized the American Heart Association’s Go Red campaign, which aims to raise awareness of heart disease, the No. 1 killer of women worldwide.
“A shared commitment to the cardiovascular health and well-being of our community makes this a success every year,” says Beth Oliver, DNP, RN, Senior Vice President, Cardiac Services, Mount Sinai Health System.
