❤️ Education and compassion help John MacMartin face his heart diagnosis.

When a routine check-up with Bruce Roach, MD, revealed an irregular pulse, John MacMartin worked with Trinity Health specialists to find answers. After meeting with Cardiologist Samir Turk, MD, he learned he had atrial fibrillation (AFib), an irregular heart rhythm.

With guidance and reassurance from Dr. Turk and Amanda Weidler, FNP-C, John found peace of mind and confidence to manage his condition.

🎃 Halloween is just one week away! With Trunk-or-Treats and spooky fun around the corner, here are some important safety tips for a fun and safe celebration:

🍬 Candy safety: Inspect all treats before enjoying. Look for any signs of tampering, and be cautious with homemade treats. For those with food allergies, check for allergen labels and consider carrying allergy-friendly snacks. It’s also a good idea to talk to your children about the dangers of accepting treats from strangers, including the potential for harmful substances.

🚦 Street smarts: Stick to well-lit areas, walk in groups, and never enter a stranger's home.
🐾 Animal awareness: Be mindful of pets that might be uncomfortable with costumes or crowds.
💳 ID safety: Bring an ID card in case of emergencies.
🍂 Fall weather: Dress in layers to stay cozy on those chilly nights!

Let’s keep Halloween fun, safe, and inclusive for all! 👻
