Healthcare professionals spend their lives caring for others, yet too often their own well-being takes a back seat. As demands continue to rise, it’s more important than ever to create space for honest conversations about mental health, self-care, and thriving in the healthcare profession.

McClendon, LPC, CCTP; Dr. Lauren Powell; and Natasha Taylor for leading last week's community conversation and sharing practical strategies and personal insights on:

Across healthcare and emergency medical services, we're seeing growing opportunities to leverage technology in ways that can strengthen care delivery, improve coordination, and support better patient outcomes. Supported by T-Mobile, the American Heart Association is working with local EMS providers to explore how technology can help address real-world issues, identify opportunities for innovation, and better understand what solutions can have the greatest impact on the communities we serve.

Take a peek behind the curtain at the CSRA Executive Leadership Breakfast.

Bringing together leaders from across communities and industries, this event also featured a panel conversation with executives from four of the CSRA's leading healthcare systems. More importantly, it served as a launchpad for this year's CSRA Heart Walk, inspiring companies, teams and people across the region to unite behind a common goal: supporting heart health and saving lives.

Thank you to our moderator Jay Jefferies with WFXG FOX54; to our panelists Joanna Conley, Dr. Lily Henson, Matt Merrifield and Ralph Turner; and to our CSRA Heart Walk chair Rich Zaharek.

The 2027 is locally sponsored by Piedmont Augusta, Savannah River Nuclear Solutions, LLC, Wellstar MCG Health Medical Center and News 12 26 Augusta. Learn more and register now at csraheartwalk.org

Thank you, Atlanta! Because of you, the Heart Walk was a huge success as hundreds learned how to perform Hands-Only CPR. Together, we’re turning bystanders into lifesavers and funding research that saves lives every day. The Atlanta Heart Walk brought together more than 5,000 walkers to raise more than $2.7 million. Your steps help fund CPR awareness, research and programs that save lives. Thank you for walking to save lives with us.
