Heart Health Month

 Albury Wodonga Health is dedicating this entire month to Heart Health. February is not only the month of love but also a perfect time to focus on nurturing and caring for our most vital organ. Heart Health Month at AWH is a comprehensive initiative to raise awareness, promote healthy lifestyles, and celebrate the beating heart of our organisation.

Throughout the month, we have planned engaging activities, including informative webinars, interactive sessions, and opportunities for us all to come together as a community to prioritise our heart health. Let's embark on this journey together, supporting each other in making heart-healthy choices and fostering a culture of well-being within our AWH family.

 

All Staff Webinar - Dietetics Presentation 

In this month's all staff webinar the wonderful Helen Still our Dietetics Manager presented a great presentation offering up tips and information to 'Eat for a Healthy Heart'. 

If you missed the webinar please watch the video here.

Heartfelt Message Cards 

Cards are being distributed across the organisation. Each card will carry one of five heart health-related messages and on the reverse side, it allows you to pen down your own heartfelt messages. 

The aim is simple yet profound – we encourage both staff and patients to exchange these cards, spreading positivity and brightening each other's day across the month of February.

Keep an eye out cards will be distributed to all AWH locations shortly.
