Heart Health Starts at Home

Heart disease is the leading health concern for seniors, but the good news? Many risk factors are manageable with the right support.

How Our Caregivers Support Heart Health:

✓ Medication reminders - ensuring heart medications are taken on time
✓ Heart-healthy meals - nutritious food seniors actually enjoy
✓ Daily movement - gentle walks and exercises with safety support
✓ Companionship - reducing stress and isolation
✓ Early warning signs - monitoring and communicating with families\

5 Simple Heart Health Tips

  1. Move for 30 minutes daily - even in 10-minute intervals
  2. Stay hydrated - keep water within easy reach
  3. Prioritize sleep - aim for 7-8 hours nightly
  4. Stay connected - social interaction protects heart health
  5. Laugh often - it reduces stress and improves circulation
