It’s always important to prioritize your heart health, and American Heart Month is the perfect time to refocus on the habits that keep your heart strong.

If you haven’t seen your primary care provider recently, be sure to schedule an appointment to stay up to date on important screenings and to monitor key indicators like blood pressure and heart rate.

“Philanthropy and community support have been the driving force for growing the ALERT program since the beginning,” said Michael Barth, CFRE, President of the Logan Health Foundation. “That support is what allows us not only to sustain this elite critical care transport service, but to continue building it for the future. The ALERT Banquet is a key step in that effort, helping ensure we have the aircraft, equipment and teams needed to reach patients across our region when every minute matters.”

The 48th Annual ALERT Banquet will take place Saturday, April 25, 2026, at the Trade Center at the Flathead County Fairgrounds. The event is the premier fundraiser supporting the ALERT medical flight program, which has delivered lifesaving care across the Flathead Valley for more than 50 years.

Every year, Bill Sanguine marks the anniversary of his heart surgery in a meaningful way by making his “Thankful to Be Alive” donation to the Logan Health Foundation.

Fourteen years later, this tradition celebrates his health and recognizes the care team who supported both him and his late wife, Phyllis, throughout their health care journeys. It is a powerful reminder that gratitude truly helps close the circle of healing.

"The pillars of healthy diet and regular exercise can make a huge difference in anyone's cardiac health." - Taylor Lies, PA-C, Logan Health Specialty Care - Polson

As we continue to spread awareness this American Heart Month, we are proud to spotlight many of our heart and vascular specialists here at Logan Health. Remember, prioritizing checkups and healthy habits are everyday choices that compound to reduce your risk of developing heart disease.

Logan Health Heart & Vascular offers Pulsed Field Ablation (PFA), a safer way to treat atrial fibrillation (AFib).

Traditional ablation techniques use extreme heat or cold to correct abnormal heart rhythms. PFA takes a different approach, using targeted electrical pulses to treat the specific heart tissue causing the problem, while better protecting surrounding structures.

At Logan Health, all AFib ablation procedures are now performed using pulsed field ablation because it carries a lower risk of damage to nearby areas like the esophagus and nerves. This means fewer complications, faster recovery, and better outcomes for patients. So you can get back to doing the things you love.

Heart attack symptoms aren’t always the same for men and women, and recognizing the differences could save a life!

Don't ignore the signs. If you or someone nearby shows any of these symptoms, call 911 immediately. Share this post to help us spread lifesaving awareness during American Heart Month.
