Louisville’s Leader Is There for You Before Your Care and After

As the leading cardiovascular program in Louisville and Southern Indiana, Norton Heart & Vascular Institute is focused on improving your heart and vascular health before you need us and getting you back to your life after you receive care.

The Norton Heart & Vascular Institute Resource Center provides education and support to help you live a heart-healthy life to lower your risk of a cardiac event that could be life-changing. Many of our programs are focused on helping heart and vascular patients recover.

By combining the resources of Norton Heart & Vascular Institute, Marshall Women’s Health & Education Center and our community partners, we provide a variety of services for communities. Many are free.

Resources include:

Connecting Hearts Support Group

This group provides education and support to men and women after a heart attack, living with a heart condition or at risk for cardiovascular disease.

Heart Health Screenings

Prevention is the best way to manage heart disease, and screenings are available to detect early signs of cardiac and vascular disease and identify risk factors.

Classes and Events

Norton Heart & Vascular Institute offers classes about once a week on a broad range of heart health topics, including cooking classes, atrial fibrillation (A-fib), heart failure education workshops and more.
