Every year more than 500,000 people are diagnosed with congestive heart failure. Our goal is to prevent emergency care and rehospitalization with a focus on assisting patients and their caregiver to understand the symptoms, treatments and ways to prevent an increase in the severity of CHF.
Education about heart health is essential to our patient’s plan of care. “Heart Health at Home” focuses on how patients watch their own health so they can spend less time in need of emergency care and enjoying more time participating in activities they choose to enhance their quality of life. The fact is you can do many things to help get and keep your heart in shape. Our healthcare professionals focus on: energy conservation, diet, exercise, medications, and general heart health tips such as how to stop smoking and relaxation techniques. We help to get patients into “Life Habits” that provide a better quality of life.
