St. David's HealthCare proudly sponsored The Go Red for Women Summit which recently took place in Austin, Texas. The event challenges and inspires individuals to take control of their heart health while joining St. David’s HealthCare and the American Heart Association to spread the word about taking action to fight heart disease.
Cardiovascular disease is the single leading cause of death among American women. Nearly 1,200 women die of cardiovascular diseases in the United States each day—almost one woman every minute. It is claiming more lives each year than cancer, chronic lower respiratory diseases and accidents combined, and it is largely preventable.
Not only is St. David’s HealthCare the leading healthcare provider in the region, we are the leading provider of cardiovascular care and women’s services. We are committed to working with top physicians to provide high-quality, compassionate care to the women of Central Texas, and we are proud to join the American Heart Association to promote awareness of heart disease in women and help save lives.
