Paid family & medical leave isn’t just good policy, it’s life changing. A Utah mom shares how paid leave helped her be there for her baby in the NICU...most Utah workers don’t have access. Lawmakers can change that with #HB329 before session ends.

Medical research saves lives, but right now, it’s at risk of being cut.
Join us TODAY as #HeartPowered advocates nationwide urge Congress to increase NIH funding that fuels lifesaving cardiovascular research and more.

One of @American_Heart most important initiatives is #FoodisMedicine . Kudos @MitchElkind and @kevin_volpp for leading. Nice to see dedicated space at #AHA25 for science and discussion. Looking forward to seeing the RCT data from studies underway

Cardiovascular imaging is important in helping screen and identify disease early. But perhaps it’s not just for cardiovascular assessment but perhaps for metabolic findings such as hepatic steatosis, but also pulmonary findings, and aortic findings

During government shutdowns:
🩺 People struggle to access health care.
🧪 Lifesaving medical research is put on hold.
🕛 Services millions rely on are delayed.
Tell your elected officials to find a compromise and reopen the government: advocacycampaigns.heartpower…. #HeartPowered

You don't gotta knock on wood, because it ain’t hard to see that Hands-Only CPR can be the key to saving a life!
If you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives to the beat of @taylorswift13’s new hit “Wood.”

My heart is heavy for the lives lost and families affected by the devastating plane crash in Washington, D.C. My deepest condolences to everyone impacted by this tragedy.

The bipartisan HEARTS Act is a monumental step in saving lives from cardiac arrest. Thank you to @HamlinIsland for inspiring this lifesaving initiative and to the members of Congress and advocates nationwide who have worked for over two years to make our schools safer.
WE DID IT! 🫶🏼🎉 @POTUS officially signed the HEARTS Act into law!

Thank you for coming to the presentation! Agree completely, need to establish systems of care together in order to improve guideline-based lipid management.
Friends. This data is stark.
1) population of those who HAVE disease
2) just <55% on any statins
3) <50% at goal LDL-C
4) We need to partner together better with our patients

1/4: When Anjalia learned CPR at school, she never thought she’d need to use the lifesaving skill on her grandmother. “If it’s not a requirement, …my grandma might not be here,” she said. CPR education in schools can save lives. Here’s how: investigatetv.com/2024/02/23… 🧵 ⬇️
