For $50, each patient will receive an EKG, lipid profile, blood pressure screening and a basic metabolic profile. Along with the screening, patients will receive a FREE t-shirt – courtesy of RMC Foundation who is sponsoring this year’s Heart Day activities.

Why:
According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the key to preventing cardiovascular disease is managing your risk factors, such as high blood pressure, high total cholesterol or high blood glucose. The best way to find out is through screening tests during regular doctor visits. “Regular cardiovascular screenings are important because it helps you detect risk factors in their earliest stages,” said Barry A. Franklin, Ph.D., American Heart Association.
