NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst has officially launched a Women’s Heart Health Institute, aiming to address and eliminate disparities in heart health among women. This new initiative is designed to provide specialized care and resources tailored specifically for women, recognizing that they often experience different symptoms and risk factors compared to men.
The institute will focus on educating women about heart disease, which remains a leading cause of death for females in the United States. By offering comprehensive screenings, personalized treatment plans, and lifestyle counseling, the program seeks to empower women to take charge of their heart health. Additionally, the clinic will work to raise awareness about the unique challenges women face in cardiovascular health, including hormonal influences and the impact of stress.
With a dedicated team of healthcare professionals, the Women’s Heart Health Institute aims to create a supportive environment where women can receive the care they need and deserve. This initiative underscores the commitment to improving health outcomes and ensuring equitable access to healthcare services for all women in the community.
