Update on American Heart Association education and information initiatives.
The American Heart Association has placed emphasis on providing information and educational resources about cardiovascular diseases and stroke. These initiatives are helping to reach a broad-based population of those at risk and potentially at risk. Programs include employee health, supplements for health education in schools, and community-focused programs for awareness and modification of cardiovascular risk factors. Healthcare professionals are encouraged to increase their knowledge of these resources to better serve their patients.
