March 03, 2015

Poughkeepsie, NY (March 3, 2015) – Last Friday, Institute staff and residents attended the 2015  Dutchess-Ulster “Go Red For Women” Luncheon, hosted by the American Heart Association at The Grandview in Poughkeepsie, NY.  At the event, residents from the Institute offered blood pressure checks to help  the women in attendance “know their numbers.” One of those women was reality TV star Amy Roloff from the show “Little People, Big World.”

Go Red For Women® is the American Heart Association‘s movement to raise awareness and advocate for more research so that women can live longer healthier lives, free from heart disease and stroke. All Institute health centers offer preventive heart health services, and care for heart conditions – call us to make an appointment.
