Protecting Young Hearts: Methacton and Simon's Heart Host Successful Heart Screening Event at MHS
October 14, 2024: Methacton successfully hosted a Youth Heart Screening in partnership with Simon's Heart today, providing essential heart health evaluations for about 100 individuals aged 14-25.
The screenings aimed to identify and address potential heart conditions, particularly those that often remain undetected in young athletes.
The screenings included comprehensive medical histories, physical examinations, electrocardiograms, and echocardiograms when necessary. Students also learned valuable life-saving skills through CPR and AED training.
We are immensely grateful for this impactful event organized by Simon's Heart and Methacton. We extend our sincere thanks to the nursing team, medical team, volunteers, and everyone involved in making this vital health initiative a success.
