NOVI - Providence Park Hospital in Novi announced that a select team of top-notch hockey-playing MDs will take on a select team of Novi police officers and firefighters in a charity event on Saturday, February 4th.

February is 'Heart Month' so local emergency personnel are partnering to raise awareness about heart health. The 'In a Heartbeat Hockey Game' will be followed by an exiting match-up between the Plymouth Whalers and Windsor Spitfires - two great games for just $12, and $4 of that goes to the Providence Heart Institute.

Providence will be offering heart risk assessments to attendees, and will also offer discounted full Heart and Vascular screenings at the game.

The game will take place at Compuware Arena, located on Beck Road just north of M-14 in Plymouth Township. Face-off is 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, February 4th, 2012.
