March is National Kidney Month, a time when communities across the country raise awareness about kidney disease. This year’s focus is on taking charge of your health and the many factors that go into managing your kidney disease.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious condition affecting around 35.5 million people. Often overlooked until symptoms appear, CKD is progressive and can put you at risk for serious health complications including heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure. Adopting a healthy lifestyle can help you manage CKD and its complications from progressing.

See the tips below for managing CKD.

Each year, about 700 women in the U.S. die from pregnancy-related problems, and more than 50,000 women have life-threatening pregnancy complications. Heart and blood vessel conditions, such as coronary heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, and cardiomyopathy, are leading causes. The good news is that most of these problems are preventable, meaning you can take steps before, during, and after pregnancy to help your heart health.

Pregnancy-related heart problems can happen to any woman, but your risk may be higher if you:

Are 40 or older
Are African American, American Indian, or Alaska Native
Are overweight or have obesity
Have heart problems
Get little physical activity
Use opioids or other illegal drugs
Drink alcohol
Smoke
Have existing heart disease, such as congenital heart disease or heart valve disease
Have an existing health condition, such as diabetes, high blood pressure, blood clotting disorders, sleep apnea, anemia, or polycystic o***y syndrome (PCOS)

February is American Heart Month and National Wear Red Day is Friday February, 6, 2026

DYK: More than 4 in 10 women in the U.S. have some form of cardiovascular disease, such as heart disease or stroke — a figure that is only expected to grow. Each year, heart disease and stroke kill more women than all forms of cancer combined.

GO RED in support of women’s cardiovascular health by wearing red, sharing information and resources and donating to support research and education. Visit WearRedDay.org

Have you had your annual mammogram screening?

A Mammogram is a noninvasive X-ray used to check breasts for breast cancer and other abnormalities. It is the only test shown to reduce breast cancer deaths. Mammograms can detect cancer early – when most treatable – long before it can be felt. This improves odds of survival and can help avoid more extensive treatment.

"Mammograms on The Go" makes it convenient for women who are unable to or don't have time to travel to the local breast center or clinic to get their annual screening. See information below for our upcoming event and call and schedule your appointment today.

February is American Heart Month, a critical time to raise awareness that heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S.. Key prevention strategies include eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly (30 mins/day), quitting smoking, managing stress, and monitoring blood pressure and cholesterol. "Life's Essential 8" guidelines, including quality sleep and healthy weight management, are crucial for long-term cardiovascular health.

Key Heart Health Awareness Actions

• Know Your Numbers: Regularly check blood pressure, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels.
• Get Active & Eat Smart: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise per week and adopt a heart-healthy diet
• Quit Smoking: Smoking is a major risk factor for heart disease.
• Manage Stress & Sleep: Practice relaxation techniques like yoga or meditation and get enough quality sleep.
• Women's Heart Health: Heart disease is a leading cause of death for women, who may experience different symptoms, such as nausea or pain in the arm rather than just chest pain.
• Learn CPR: Hands-only CPR can double or triple a cardiac arrest victim's chance of survival.

Maternal Health Awareness Day (MHAD) is observed annually on January 23rd, a day dedicated to raising awareness about preventable maternal deaths, improving maternal health outcomes, ensuring access to quality care, and educating women, families, and healthcare providers on critical issues like mental health, cardiac conditions, and hemorrhage. It's a national effort to advocate for better support, especially given that over 80% of maternal deaths are preventable, with organizations like the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) leading campaigns to strengthen care before, during, and after pregnancy.

Key Goals & Focus Areas:
Preventing Deaths: Highlighting the unacceptably high rates of maternal mortality, especially in low- and middle-income countries, and advocating for data-driven solutions.

Advancing Care: Promoting respectful, evidence-based, and patient-centered care for all expectant and new mothers.
Improving Access: Reducing disparities in access to prenatal and postpartum care.

Addressing Leading Causes: Focusing on key underlying causes like mental health conditions, cardiac issues, and hemorrhage.

How to Get Involved:
Educate yourself and others on maternal health.

Advocate for policies that improve maternal care access and quality.

Support local programs that offer comprehensive support for pregnant individuals and new parents.
