The Heart Truth® Professional Education Program: Free Resources on Heart Disease

The Heart TruthAwareness of heart disease among women has nearly doubled in the last 12 years, but it remains the #1 killer of women. More than 60% of women ages 20-39 and more than 80% of women ages 40-60 have one or more modifiable risk factors for heart disease.

Through our partnership with the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, the Office on Women's Health is pleased to invite you to browse new Heart Truth Professional Education Program materials on women's heart disease prevention. We also invite you to earn free CME credits through new Medscape modules on women's heart disease (free registration required). Learn about motivational interviewing to support heart healthy behaviors and evidence-based prevention strategies and tools. These new resources have been updated to reflect the American Heart Association's newest cardiovascular disease guidelines for women.

The Office on Women's Health encourages health care professionals to use these resources and stay up-to-date on women's heart disease risk and prevention.
