Renown’s Stroke Survivor Support Group is a safe and supportive space for stroke survivors, family, friends, and caregivers to offer encouragement to each other. Our Mission is built upon friendship, meaningful connection, and fun by offering opportunities to learn more about stroke and self-care, trying new things, and rebuilding confidence as you maneuver life after stroke. Stroke Support groups allow survivors and caregivers to create meaningful moments and purposeful lives after stroke.
This support group meets the first Monday of each month. A virtual option is also available, and an invitation will be sent via email before the meeting.
Guard Your Heart with Healthy Habits and Genetic Insights
It’s American Heart Month, and when it comes to heart health, Renown Health doesn’t skip a beat.
Here are four ways you can celebrate Heart Month this February:
Heart disease affects more women than many people realize. In fact, it is the leading cause of death among women in the U.S., taking the lives of about 305,000 women each year. That’s about 1 in every 3 female deaths.
Renown Vascular Care Transforms High Blood Pressure Treatment
Nearly half of Americans over age 20 have high blood pressure—also known as hypertension—and many are unaware of their condition. Without proper management, hypertension significantly increases the risk of heart disease and stroke.
As the region’s only not-for-profit academic health system and a leader in cardiology care, we are dedicated to advancing both clinical and technological expertise. Effectively treating hypertension, including resistant cases, is essential to meeting our community’s needs and offering essential and advanced care options.
