February 7, 2025, marks National Wear Red Day, an important event during American Heart Month dedicated to raising awareness about cardiovascular disease—the leading cause of death among women. Hosted by the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women initiative, this day serves as a reminder of the power of education, prevention, and proactive health measures.
At Team Select Home Care, we’re proud to stand alongside this initiative to help make a difference in the lives of women and families we serve.
Understanding National Wear Red Day
National Wear Red Day was created to draw attention to the significant impact cardiovascular disease has on women. Wearing red on this day symbolizes solidarity in the fight against heart disease and serves as a visible reminder of the need for greater awareness and action.
According to the Go Red for Women campaign, nearly 80% of cardiovascular diseases are preventable through lifestyle changes and education. Yet, many women are unaware of their risk factors or the symptoms of heart disease, which can differ significantly from those in men.
At TSHC, we recognize the importance of spreading this message and empowering women to take control of their heart health.
