THIS week is the Heart Foundation's National Heart Week, promoting heart health awareness and action.
Held from 05-11 May, the week provides an opportunity for pharmacists to start a conversation with patients about heart health, utilise point-of-care testing to assess risk, and discuss steps patients can take to reduce heart risk.
The Heart Week website has various resources that health professionals can promote, including a heart age calculator to help patients understand their risk of heart disease and educational materials with advice on reducing risk.
Pharmacists can also attend a webinar on sex differences in CVD risk on Thu 08 May.
See the WEBSITE for more.
