Northside Hospital Cherokee recently issued the following announcement.
Northside Hospital Heart Institute is offering a free screening to determine risk for heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease, or CVD.
It will take place Saturday, Feb. 26 from 9 a.m. to noon at Northside Hospital Forsyth, Bennett A & B Classrooms, 1400 Northside Forsyth Drive, Cumming, Georgia 30041.
CVD remains the number one killer of Americans, according to the American Heart Association. A range of factors can raise your risk of developing CVD and having a heart attack or stroke. The more factors you have, the greater your risk. It is essential that you measure your risk for CVD and make a plan for how you can prevent it.
COVID-19 safety measures will be practiced according to CDC guidelines.
The screening is free, but pre-registration is required.
To schedule an appointment or for more information, call 404-851-6550.
