February Is Heart Month: Take Charge of Your Heart Health at Eisenhower Health

February is American Heart Month — a time to focus on protecting one of your most vital organs. Heart disease remains the leading cause of death in the United States, but many cardiovascular conditions are preventable and highly treatable when detected early.

At Eisenhower Health, patients have access to comprehensive, advanced heart care right here in the Coachella Valley, along with tools that empower you to better understand your personal risk.

Start With the Heart Health Risk Assessment

Not sure where you stand when it comes to heart health? A great first step is Eisenhower’s Heart Health Risk Assessment (HRA), a free, easy-to-complete online tool designed to help you evaluate your cardiovascular risk factors.

In just a few minutes, the HRA provides personalized insights based on factors such as age, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, lifestyle habits and medical history. You’ll receive guidance on potential next steps and whether a conversation with a provider may be beneficial. Understanding your risk today can help prevent serious complications tomorrow.
