What’s the Difference between a Heart Attack and Cardiac Arrest?

News you can use 🙂

People often use these terms interchangeably, but they’re not the same. A heart attack is when blood flow to the heart is blocked. Sudden cardiac arrest is when the heart malfunctions and suddenly stops beating. A heart attack is a “circulation” problem and sudden cardiac arrest is an “electrical” problem.

Native American Heritage & Elders

November is Native American Heritage Month. As I was surfing the www, I was fortunate enough to find a website, which focuses on eldercare for Native Americans. Please take a moment to acquaint yourself with the National Resource Center on Native American Aging and share it with others who may benefit from this source of care.
