Welcome to the Croí Connects Podcast, where we dive deep into matters of heart, stroke and cardiovascular health. Croí, the Irish word for ”heart,” symbolises the core of who we are and what we care about. In this series, we explore topics that nurture cardiovascular wellbeing, education, prevention and personal stories. Through insightful interviews with medical experts, patients, and advocates, we unpack the specialist advice, wisdom, and positive change that can help better our health and wellbeing. Whether you’re seeking inspiration, reflection, or simply a heartfelt conversation, the Croí Connects Podcast is your space to listen, learn, and understand matters of the heart. Tune in for authentic, informative stories and powerful discussions that connect us all, heart to heart. At Croí our aim is to lead the fight against heart disease and stroke. Our mission is to prevent disease, save lives and promote recovery and wellbeing. Croí’s telephone helpline, Croí Connects, is available for those living with or affected by heart disease and stroke. When you call, you will be connected with one of our Cardiac Nurse Specialists or you can join one of our weekly virtual health chats! Croí Connects is available weekdays from 9 am – 5:30 pm on 091 544310 or by email at healthteam@croi.ie
