David Cairns: Women Often Don’t Know Their Stroke Risk and That’s What We’re Trying to Change
David Cairns, Director, HPS and Professional Claims at Sun Life, shared on LinkedIn:
”Stroke affects one in five women ages 55 to 75, yet 80% of strokes are preventable.
This statistic drives the work I do at PinnacleCare.
Women often don’t know their stroke risk and that’s exactly what we’re trying to change.
By helping people understand their unique cardiovascular factors, we empower real prevention and better health outcomes.
If you want to learn about women’s stroke risk and prevention strategies, I encourage you to explore this.”
