Starting today it’s the Best Health Care For All.
We are born equal, but we are not the same. The best health care meets each individual’s unique needs. The NC Health and Wellness Trust Fund’s goal is to eliminate health disparities based on gender, class or race. For health care providers, “Care to Act” means doing their part to address health disparities; for individuals and families, it means taking action to live a healthier life. With everyone working together, we can have the best health care for all. Go to caretoactnc.com today.

Get pumped. Know your numbers. Be healthy.
We see numbers every day, but knowing these numbers could save your life. Keeping your blood pressure below 120 over 80 lowers your risk for stroke and heart disease. If your blood pressure is too high, it means your heart is working too hard to get blood to your organs. Your arteries are under too much pressure, and that can lead to a heart attack or a stroke. The good news is that there are simple things you can do to prevent high blood pressure or to lower it if it’s already too high. Ask your doctor what your blood pressure is, and keep checking those numbers! To learn more go to CaretoActNC.com today.
