Providence Regional Medical Center (PRMCE) was onsite, at Everett Memorial Stadium, for the 3rd annual Healthy Heart Fair event, honoring former Everett Public Schools athletic director, Robert Polk, organized by his wife Tara Polk. Beautiful weather for an event that featured information and activities to support heart health for all ages. PRMCE caregivers provided blood pressure checks, blood pressure education, and stroke education. Our Trauma Injury Prevention department shared information about the importance of Stop the Bleed and upcoming webinar for BE SMART.
Several participants engaged throughout the day in getting active, educated, and aware of hearth health and heart attack signs, care, and treatment. Many thanks to Tara Polk, the Everett School District, and community organizations who coordinated this offering for our community.
