February is Heart Month
Each February the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center kicks off American Heart Month by displaying hearts and lights hung from the trees throughout the medical campus and various outpatient locations. The medical center is part of the Million Hearts Initiative, a nationwide approach to promote heart healthy lifestyles. The goal of this initiative is to prevent one million heart attacks and strokes by 2027. To assist with reaching this goal, staff members were able to receive their own cardiac screenings, participate in hands-only CPR training and have an opportunity to become enrolled in group classes that promote heart health such as Live Smart for a Healthy Heart. Other campus events include National Wear Red Day to represent women’s cardiovascular health and a series of social media posts promoting heart healthy recipes and adaptable lifestyle changes.
