That’s why we’re so thrilled to continue to support Croí with the ‘Croí Heart Days” event. It’s a fantastic opportunity to provide the public with essential information about cholesterol and the importance of managing it effectively.” \nAnnie Costelloe\, Head of Patient Community Engagement at Croí\, highlighted the significance of the event: “This event is incredibly important for raising awareness about cholesterol and its impact on heart health and stroke prevention. We are very happy to be working with Benecol Ireland to bring this valuable information to the public and to offer free cholesterol testing to those who need it.

There will be expert talks\, free cholesterol tests (for those that haven’t been tested in the last year) and plenty more in this half day event. \nLaura O’Connell\, Senior Marketing Manager for Benecol Ireland\, said: “We are dedicated to prioritising heart-health for our consumers by lowering cholesterol. That’s why we’re so thrilled to continue to support Croí with the ‘Croí Heart Days” event. It’s a fantastic opportunity to provide the public with essential information about cholesterol and the importance of managing it effectively.” \nAnnie Costelloe\, Head of Patient Community Engagement at Croí\, highlighted the significance of the event: “This event is incredibly important for raising awareness about cholesterol and its impact on heart health and stroke prevention. We are very happy to be working with Benecol Ireland to bring this valuable information to the public and to offer free cholesterol testing to those who need it. The importance of knowing and understanding your numbers when it comes to your cholesterol cannot be understated and we hope that this event can bring this to the forefront of people’s minds.” URL:https://croi.ie/event/croi-heart-day-with-benecol-killybegs/ LOCATION:BAYVIEW HOTEL\, KILLYBEGS\, COUNTY DONEGAL\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Health ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://croi.ie/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/Croi-Heart-Day-Benecol-Killybegs-Event-feature-image.png ORGANIZER;CN="Cro%C3%AD":MAILTO:info@croi.ie END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20241005T120000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20241005T150000 DTSTAMP:20260523T010904 CREATED:20241001T085344Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241001T085501Z UID:10000102-1728129600-1728140400@croi.ie SUMMARY:Croí in Your Community Event - Galway Bay Golf Resort DESCRIPTION:The Croí Mobile Health Unit will be offering free blood pressure and pulse checks along with valuable information and advice on stroke prevention and heart health: \n\n\nGalway Bay Golf Resort\, Renville Village\, Oranmore\, Co.

The event will also feature a talk by the Croí Health Team on the benefits of healthy eating and physical activity for maintaining a healthy heart. This is a great opportunity to learn more about heart health and connect with the experts. \nCommissioned as part of a transformative legacy donation of over €3 million from the Joe & Helen O’Toole Charitable Trust\, the Croí Mobile Health Hub is a first of its kind in Ireland. The 13.6-metre-long multi-purpose unit is the largest of its type in the country\, designed to facilitate early detection of stroke and heart disease. Equipped with six private assessment cubicles and two consultation rooms\, the vehicle can also be converted into an open-plan educational and training space capable of hosting up to 40 visitors\, with full audio-visual facilities. \nMark O’Donnell\, Croí Chief Executive\, emphasised the importance of this groundbreaking initiative:  “Stroke and heart disease remain the leading causes of death and acquired disability worldwide\, yet 80% of early cardiovascular disease is preventable. Thanks to the extraordinary generosity of the Joe & Helen O’Toole Charitable Trust\, this purpose-built mobile facility will bring lifesaving services directly to communities. The Croí multi-disciplinary health team will provide varied early detection and preventive health checks on board\, as well as deliver education and training events. We are committed to making these services accessible across the region and beyond through our mobile units\, as well as building out the delivery of additional and more advanced diagnostics and research activities over time.” \nThe Croí Mobile Health Hub will serve as a vital resource offering a wide range of free health activities across the West of Ireland and beyond. Its capacity to deliver such public-facing health initiatives will help to empower individuals with the knowledge and support they need to take control of their heart health. \nEducation programmes will cover a broad spectrum of topics\, including brain and heart health; specialist lifestyle and dietary advice; recognition of stroke and heart attack signs and symptoms; defibrillation training for community first responders and home responders; post-stroke and post-heart attack recovery within the community; disease awareness and advocacy campaigns as well as exercise based physical activity. \nThe Croí Mobile Health Hub is the third community vehicle acquired by Croí since launching a Community Mobile Health Unit and minibus earlier this year\, all of which have been funded by the trust. In addition\, the Joe & Helen O’Toole Stroke Hub will open at the Croí Heart & Stroke Centre in Newcastle in January 2025 to provide post-hospital discharge stroke care and support services as part of this legacy donation. \nMary Lardner\, a trustee of the Joe & Helen O’Toole Charitable Trust\, expressed pride in seeing this project come to fruition: “Joe and Helen were deeply committed to improving the lives of those in their community and the Croí Mobile Health Hub is a fitting tribute to their legacy. We hope that through this initiative\, more lives will be saved and families will be spared the devastating impact of stroke and heart disease.”  \nThe launch event on September 12th is open to all and Croí encourages everyone in Tuam and the surrounding areas to visit the truck to take advantage of the free health checks and educational sessions from 10 am – 4 pm outside O’Tooles SuperValu to learn more about how to protect themselves and their loved ones from stroke and heart disease. \nFor more information\, please email community@croi.ie or call 091-544310.
