The National Volunteer Fire Council (NVFC) and it's Heart Healthy Firefighter Program will be attending Fire Rescue International in New Orleans, August 12-15, 2004. We will be at booth #2913. To see a floor plan of the event please visit, http://www.iafc.org/pdf/conf/fri04_floorplan.pdf.
As part of the NVFC Heart-Healthy Firefighter Program we will be offering free cholesterol testing. The testing is quick, taking only about 7 minutes. You will receive your results right there at the booth. Your results include your total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol and ratio. Trained professionals are on site to perform the testing and discuss your results with you. This service is being performed by L&T Health and Fitness.
The mission of the NVFC Heart-Healthy Firefighter Program is to reduce the number of firefighter deaths from heart attack. This mission will be accomplished by promoting a healthier lifestyle and by providing firefighters with fitness, nutrition, cholesterol and other pertinent information to assist them on the road to becoming heart-healthy.
We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans!
