In recognition of American Heart Month, Gateway Senior Living in partnership with Nebraska Heart Institute offered a free seminar entitled “Risk Prevention of Heart Disease” to educate residents, staff and the community about heart-healthy living.  This seminar was presented by Mary Baxter, APRN from Nebraska Heart Institute, and was held at noon on February 18 at the Gateway Senior Living Auditorium, 225 N. 56th Street (Garden Level).  A light heart-healthy lunch was provided including small portion, low sodium sandwiches along with vegetables and fruit.  The event welcomed a great turnout, and many people in the audience asked questions and took away information which will help them lead a happier, healthier lifestyle.

The Health Education Series at Gateway Senior Living is a free educational program for patients, families and caregivers looking to receive more information on health awareness topics.  For more information about Gateway Senior Living, please call (402) 464-6371 or visit www.gatewayseniorliving.com.
