Please join Dr. Janet Wright, Million Hearts Executive Director
and Surgeon General, Dr. Regina Benjamin on September 5, 2012 at 8:00 am MST, as
they launch Team Up. Pressure Down. a new Million Hearts
educational program that promotes team-based care and offers support for health
care professionals working to improve medication adherence and blood pressure
control.
The program offers resources—from video vignettes to conversation
starters—that encourage and support pharmacists in providing ongoing
education and counseling services to patients with high blood pressure. Patient
education materials will also be available to help people take a more
active role in self-management efforts and to encourage increased
interaction with their pharmacists.
Register for the webinar HERE.
The
goal of the Million Hearts™ initiative is to prevent 1 million
heart attacks and strokes by 2017.
