Today, Johnson & Johnson MedTech, the global leader in heart recovery, is proud to celebrate the inaugural National Heart Recovery Awareness Day!
Recognized through a U.S. Congressional resolution, this designation will help increase awareness of heart health and how innovative medical technology helps patients return home to their families – with their native heart.
In honor of National #HeartRecoveryAwarenessDay, there are more than 10 heart recovery reunions taking place this month, celebrating more than 50 patients across the country. Additionally, many patients will be sharing their stories of heart recovery at community and educational events, including the annual Utah Cardiac Recovery Symposium- #UCARS25!
The first patient we're highlighting for "5/5 Day" is Keith Brown, who recovered from a heart attack with the help of an Impella 5.5. Keith is one of several patients we are lucky enough to have in Danvers today to mark the occasion.
