We are proud to announce that Terry Ricca, Senior Vice President and Chief Experience Officer, has been named chairperson of the American Heart Association’s 10th Annual Southern New Jersey Go Red For Women® luncheon. The annual event raises awareness, promotes education, and builds passion among South Jersey women to know their personal risk of heart disease and stroke, the No. 1 and No. 4 killers of women. The “Celebration of Life & Women” luncheon will be held on Friday, April 15, 2016, at The Mansion on Main Street in Voorhees, NJ.
“It is a privilege to serve as chair for the South Jersey Go Red For Women® campaign to raise awareness and encourage women to stay healthy,” said Terry. “So many people are still unaware that heart disease and stroke, while often preventable, remain the top causes of death for women.”
Thanks to the Go Red For Women® movement, over the past 10 years more than 2 million women have learned their personal risk of developing heart disease by taking the Go Red Heart Checkup; and, hundreds of thousands of women’s lives have been saved from heart disease and stroke.
Terry has been a tireless supporter of improving women’s health over her entire career. Since joining Cooper two years ago, she has led the way in helping us build a true Culture of Service and improve access to care for our patients and the community. We are proud to have Terry represent Cooper as the leader of this event.
