Paid family & medical leave isn’t just good policy, it’s life changing. A Utah mom shares how paid leave helped her be there for her baby in the NICU...most Utah workers don’t have access. Lawmakers can change that with #HB329 before session ends.

One of @American_Heart most important initiatives is #FoodisMedicine . Kudos @MitchElkind and @kevin_volpp for leading. Nice to see dedicated space at #AHA25 for science and discussion. Looking forward to seeing the RCT data from studies underway

Cardiovascular imaging is important in helping screen and identify disease early. But perhaps it’s not just for cardiovascular assessment but perhaps for metabolic findings such as hepatic steatosis, but also pulmonary findings, and aortic findings

During government shutdowns:
🩺 People struggle to access health care.
🧪 Lifesaving medical research is put on hold.
🕛 Services millions rely on are delayed.
Tell your elected officials to find a compromise and reopen the government: advocacycampaigns.heartpower…. #HeartPowered

You don't gotta knock on wood, because it ain’t hard to see that Hands-Only CPR can be the key to saving a life!
If you see a teen or adult collapse, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives to the beat of @taylorswift13’s new hit “Wood.”
