The program helps people manage their risk factors that can lead to a heart attack, stroke, kidney disease and/or peripheral arterial disease. Services are provided by a nurse practitioner (NP). The NP provides assessments; orders and interprets diagnostic/laboratory tests; provides referrals; monitors client progress; adjusts treatments; and provides prescriptions as needed.

For information about how you can help to prevent strokes and heart attacks, see our video Protect Your Arteries! 9 ways to reduce your risk of stroke and heart attack .
