Our Friday Focus 4 Health April Series will feature the Life’s Essential 8™ guidelines, tools and application to improve quality and health outcomes for our patients and residents in the Dakotas. This week we will begin to look into how these tools can be utilized for a quality improvement project within your organization and the steps to get started.
Friday Focus 4 Health: Join us this Friday!
The American Heart Association’s Life’s Essential 8™ provides eight key measures that can lead to a lifetime of good health. Life’s Essential 8 identifies the eight most important factors for cardiovascular health, four of which are health behaviors and four that are health factors. It is designed to recognize the fact that the mind, heart and body are connected, factors that affect one can certainly affect the other two. The Essential 8 components really are that ‘science-based recipe’ for a longer, healthier life.
