Tomorrow (Friday, February 6) is National Wear Red Day, in support of women's cardiovascular health. And today is a great day to learn how to take good care of yourself and make sure you don't become a statistic!

February is American Heart Month ❤️

Heart disease is a leading cause of death in the United States. The good news is that many heart problems can be prevented with small, healthy choices.

EASY WAYS TO PROTECT YOUR HEART
• Eat healthy foods: Choose fruits, veggies, whole grains, and lean meats. Limit salt, sugar, and fried foods.
• Move your body: Aim for at least 30 minutes of activity a day. Walking, dancing, or playing all count.
• Don’t smoke or v**e: Smoking and va**ng damage your heart and blood vessels.
• Know your numbers: Keep track of your blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar.
• Get enough sleep: Try to sleep 7–9 hours each night.
• Manage stress: Take breaks, breathe deeply, or talk with someone you trust.

WARNING SIGNS OF A HEART ATTACK
Call 911 right away if you or someone else has:
• Chest pain or pressure
• Pain in the arm, back, neck, or jaw
• Shortness of breath
• Nausea, dizziness, or cold sweats

SMALL CHANGES MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE!

You don’t have to change everything at once. Even one healthy habit can help your heart.

With regular screening and the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, most cervical cancers can be prevented. Regular screening can also find cervical cancer early when it is easier to treat. Learn more: on.ny.gov/45uzJBv

Meet F.F. Thompson Hospital’s first baby of the new year! Born at 8:59 a.m. on New Year’s Day to Brittany and Sean Clancy of Canandaigua, Quinn Grace has an older brother named Wyatt. The due date was projected to be January 10, but Brittany’s water broke early Thursday morning and she and Sean quickly got to the hospital, where Quinn wasted little time in making her debut. This little one now shares a birthday with Sean’s grandmother Grace, who was born on New Year’s Day in 1925 and celebrated her 100th birthday last January 1 before passing away later in the year. She is why Brittany and Sean chose the middle name of Grace for their daughter, who is pictured wearing a swaddle gifted by the Thompson Health Guild. Congratulations from all of us at Thompson on your beautiful baby!
