What a night at the @AdlerPlanet! 🌌❤️
PACH's Annual Meeting fireside chat, presented together with @HeartNurses, brought together voices from Congress, nursing, and the patient community for a conversation about the future of cardiovascular health.
A huge thank you to our incredible panelists:
🏛️ Congressman Jesús "Chuy" García @RepChuyGarcia
🩺 Yvonne Commodore-Mensah, President of PCNA
🎖️ Ozzie Giglio, veteran, patient advocate, and ATTR amyloidosis patient
🎤 Moderated by PACH Executive Director Ryan Gough
💬 Welcome remarks delivered by PACH President Dharmesh Patel, MD
We talked about all of it: prevention and early screening, Lp(a) and cholesterol testing, empowering nurses to practice at the top of their license, keeping the U.S. at the front of medical innovation, and the Children's Cardiac Safety Act. Ozzie's story was a powerful reminder of why research and access matter so much.
This kind of collaboration is what moves the needle for patients. Thank you to the whole PCNA team for partnering with us. We're stronger together! 💪

Among 139 women aged 18-50, over half underestimated their cardiovascular disease and #stroke risk, with the biggest gaps seen among racial and ethnic minorities. New in #JACCAdvances: jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jacad…

In December, I told you about how Trump’s Department of Education is stripping nurses of our professional status and making school more expensive.
From now until March 2, we need you to raise your voice and submit a public comment: federalregister.gov/document…
