Million Hearts® exists for the sole purpose of saving and protecting more lives impacted by heart disease and stroke in the United States. Hood Million Hearts is a local effort that welcomes our community to:
- Participate in a biometric screening to know your numbers.
- Receive a FREE home blood pressure monitor and instruction on how to use it.
- Learn about your risk for heart disease and stroke and how you can make healthy lifestyle choices to lessen those risks.
- Meet with our team to discuss your numbers and progress toward your health goals
Hood College is a participating organization in the National Interprofessional Education and Practice Consortium to Advance Million Hearts®, contributing to The Ohio State University’s (OSU) goal of providing 100,000 biometric screenings across the U.S. Hood Million Hearts® recruits nursing students who are trained as Million Hearts® Fellows and provide biometric screening and coaching to Hood Million Hearts® participants on our campus and in the greater community.
