Senior Director of Healthcare Systems & Community Impact at American Heart Association

Imagine: You have chest pain. You suspect it’s a heart attack, but the closest hospital is an hour away. This is reality for millions of rural Americans. It’s just one of the reasons people who live in rural areas get sicker and die sooner than people in urban areas. The American Heart Association is committed to closing the gap between urban and rural care, working with people in rural communities to increase access to care, improve quality of care and reduce risk factors.
