The Friday Five – National Wear Red Day

Feb 7, 2020 | Posted by Annmarie Budniak | Celebrations - Awareness, Healthcare |

Follow and join the conversation with #GoRedforWomen and #GoRedGetFit.

Go Red for Women is the American Heart Association’s (@American_Heart) national movement to end heart disease and stroke in women. This week’s Friday Five highlights the initiative, explains what it’s all about, why it’s important and how you can support it.

  • G: GET YOUR NUMBERS
    Ask your doctor to check your blood pressure and cholesterol.
  • O: OWN YOUR LIFESTYLE
    Stop smoking, lose weight, exercise, and eat healthy.
    It’s up to you. No one can do it for you.
  • R: REALIZE YOUR RISK
    We think it won’t happen to us, but heart disease kills one of three women.
  • E: EDUCATE YOUR FAMILY
    Make healthy food choices for you and your family.
    Teach your kids the importance of staying active.
  • D: DON’T BE SILENT
    Tell every woman you know that heart disease is our No. 1 killer.

CVS Health to Offer No-Cost Heart Health Screenings in Support of Women’s Heart Health
As part of its continued support of the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women movement during American Heart Month, CVS Health (@cvshealth) recently announced it will be offering no-cost “Know Your Numbers” heart health screenings at MinuteClinic, the company’s retail medical clinic, on select Thursdays in February. MinuteClinic locations can be found inside select CVS Pharmacy and Target stores in 33 states and the District of Columbia.

Awareness is key to preventing heart disease and stroke. Our friends at @CVSHealth and @TYLENOL are offering no-cost heart health screenings at @MinuteClinic locations select Thursdays in February to help you #KnowYourNumbers. https://t.co/BLZ7QHUsxl pic.twitter.com/pcTemv0AtN
