Summary

This study aims to show that a 6-week program designed specifically for women can lead to sustainable behavior change and improvement in heart disease risk factors over one year among a cohort of 46 female employees recruited from within the Heart Hospital at North Shore University Hospital (NSUH). The program is adapted from book "Heart Smart for Women: Six S. T. E. P. S in Six Weeks to Heart-Healthy Living," written by Northwell cardiologists Dr. Jennifer H. Mieres and Dr. Stacey E. Rosen.

The 6-week intervention will include a weekly didactic session, with each week devoted to a different theme (food, exercise, etc). The intervention will follow the program outlined in the book. We will also be using Yammer, an online discussion group part of the Office 365 suite, to distribute materials and encourage conversations surrounding the theme of the week.
