Heartfelt Care: CHERRY Cares and Tondo Medical Center Offer Free ECG Testing

CHERRY, through its CSR initiative, CHERRY Cares, is launching a meaningful initiative in celebration of National Heart Awareness Month. This month-long campaign aims to provide free ECG testing to promote heart health awareness and early detection of cardiac issues.

Importance of Heart Health Awareness

Heart disease remains a leading cause of mortality worldwide, underscoring the critical need for heightened awareness and proactive health measures. ECG (Electrocardiogram) testing plays a pivotal role in detecting abnormalities in the heart's electrical activity, facilitating early diagnosis and preventive interventions.
