Dare to C.A.R.E.

Dare to C.A.R.E. is a national program adopted by South Shore Hospital to benefit the people of Southeastern Massachusetts. Attendees can expect dynamic presentations and workshops that will give them the tools to prevent, detect, and treat all types of cardiovascular disease. The acronym C.A.R.E. stands for:

Carotid Artery Disease
The primary source of preventable strokes

 Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
The 10th leading cause of death in men

 Renal Artery Stenosis
 Responsible for at least 20% of patients on dialysis

 Extremity Artery Disease
 A disease which has a mortality rate significantly higher than breast cancer
 and affects 12 million Americans                      

You can quickly find out if you or a loved one has risk factors that lead to cardiovascular disease by taking the quiz on cardiovascular disease.
