HeartCaring Although one in three women die of heart disease in this country, many women still fail to recognize the seriousness of heart disease. Provena St. Mary's is designated as a HeartCaring provider, which means we're prepared to identify and address gender-specific heart issues. Gender-specific? That's right. Women are NOT small men - women have different symptoms and needs. Take advantage of the education and care we can offer, tailored to your specific needs as a woman.
HeartCaring Classes So focused are we on the #1 health challenge of Kankakee County, we designed classes for the community that focus on lowering risk for cardiovascular disease. Note that each month holds a significant risk factor topic. These classes are free to the public and are offered across the street from our hospital in the Cardiac Rehab department, located in MedCentre East.. Call 937-2085 for questions or to register for classes.
Girl's Night Out Spirit of Women's Girl's Night Out is a nationwide event that focuses on women's issues such as bone, breast and cervical health in a fun and enjoyable way that brings a community of women together as friends. Recreational activities such as free bone density, glucose and cholesterol screenings and breast cancer risk assessment. Refreshments and door prizes round out the event
Day of Dance For Heart Health All across the country, Spirit of Women hospitals will be hosting a heart-beating, feet-tapping, finger-snapping, fun-loving, laughter-filled day for a Woman's Heart, on Saturday, February 24th, 2007. This day of action is designed to put the fun into heart-health-ful movement. Provena St. Mary's plans a multi-generational, multi-cultural bash, chock-ful of additional heart-health-ful activities such as nutritional recipes, refreshments, contests, educational opportunities and health screenings. Isn't the love-month a perfect time to consider your heart?
