Heart attacks and strokes are responsible for 1 in 3 deaths among women
each year – more than all cancers combined. Close to 80 percent of cardiac and stroke events can be prevented with education and action – which includes learning the risk factors and warning signs most prevalent for women.
UConn Health's cardiologist Supriya Tigadi explains that women's heart attack symptoms are different than mens . Since March is Women's History Month we will focus on how women can take better care of their heart health and also recognize the signs of something more serious. Having a caregiver is essential in recovery, from rides to the cardiac rehab to making sure a heart-healthy diet is adhered to. That's where CT Paid Leave can help with income replacement, while you take time away from work and navigate a new life with a serious health condition.
