T.J. Regional Health is
Going Red for Women’s Heart Health
Wear Red on Friday, February 2!
Heart Disease is not just a “Man’s Disease”. Heart Disease is the #1 killer of men and women and the sad thing
is that it is 80% preventable. Wear red and speak out against this silent killer, heart disease.
The good news is that heart disease is preventable when we make healthy choices and manage health
conditions.

Newborns sporting red hats for a cause
The American Heart Association and TJ Regional Health launch
Little Hats, Big Hearts in Glasgow
GLASGOW, KY – January 22, 2018 – The American Heart Association and TJ Regional Health announce the launch
of the Little Hats, Big Hearts campaign. The program that dons newborns with knitted red caps raises awareness
of heart disease, the number one killer of Americans, and congenital heart defects, the most common type of
birth defect in the country. All babies born at TJ Samson Community Hospital during the month of February will
receive a knitted red hat.
“I am thrilled that TJ Regional Health has partnered with us to bring this campaign to TJ Samson Community
Hospital! The American Heart Association is committed to educating the community on heart disease and stroke
and the Little Hats, Big Hearts campaign is just one of the ways we plan to share our mission,” says Paula
Kennedy, Division Director of the American Heart Association.
The American Heart Association has been collecting knitted little red hats from volunteers for several months in
preparation for the campaign’s launch on February 1st, heart month. This will be an annual program in which the
American Heart Association hopes to have more hospitals in Western Kentucky on board. If you would like to
help support the program, contact Paula Kennedy, paula.kennedy@heart.org for more information.
“Little Hats, Big Hearts brings attention to congenital heart defects – a condition that affects about 40,000 babies
born in the U.S. each year,” says Bud Wethington, CEO of TJ Regional Health. “We’re proud to be part of this
campaign as it brings together the community to rally around those families affected by CHD. We also would like
to thank all the incredible volunteers that share their time and talent to make this campaign possible.”
Little Hats, Big hearts began in Chicago in 2014. The project has grown to include 660 hospitals in 40 states
handing out more than 100,000 hats.

UNDERSTANDING BREAST DENSITY
Lunch & Learn
Presenter: Steve Moffett, Director of Radiology at T.J. Regional Health
Increased breast density has always been a limiting factor in visualization of breast tissue - normal
or otherwise. Thankfully, Kentucky lawmakers are sensitive to women’s health needs and have
recently responded by passing much-need legislation. This new legislation ensures that women in
the commonwealth have access to the best possible preventative care. Join us for this informative
lunch and learn to hear more about how the new breast density legislation may affect and improve
your breast cancer screening options.
