Were into February and have much to accomplish but, we always take the time to acknowledge causes taking place around us. This February, the American Heart Association is again campaigning for their Go Red for Women movement and its Hispanic movement, Go Red Por Tu Corazón, work to beat heart disease, the number-one killer of women. Each year, cardiovascular diseases claim the lives of nearly half a million women—almost one per minute. On National Wear Red Day®, February 6th, be sure to wear something red to show your support for women with heart disease; by wearing red, you are joining in the fight that thousands of women are, to reduce their personal risk for heart disease.

Believers always turn to Exodus 20:13 Thou Go Red for Heart Month By Tori Couch Greystone is committed to healthy, worthy and impactful causes. We are proud to support the American Heart Association's Go Red For Women initiative and National Heart Month. This February, Greystone kicks of the Go Red Survivor Gallery, a traveling gallery of heart issue survivors featuring Greystone's own associates. Traveling through the Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg area, the gallery showcases women who have dealt with heart attacks, arrhythmia (dangerously rapid heart rate), and battled through heart conditions from birth. Many women may be unaware of potential heart attack signs which differ greatly from men. Often misdiagnosed, women's symptoms include: Chest discomfort or upper body pain in the back, shoulders, arms, stomach, jaw, neck or throat Lightheadedness or dizziness Nausea or vomiting Inability to sleep or unusual fatigue Shortness of breath or trouble breathing Find Greystone on the Web! Follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and check out our website for the latest updates. As the 2015 Go Red Tampa Bay Chair, Connie Bessler, CEO of Greystone Healthcare Management, is raising awareness and support for women's heart health. "Through education we can highlight the different ways heart concerns can manifest themselves and encourage better care and safety. A number one killer of women, we must be constantly vigilant against such a serious – and often overlooked – health concern." Support Heart Health month by: Wearing red on Go Red Day, February 6th.
