Reid Advanced Heart Failure Center at 1,000 enrollees and counting
July 1, 2022 -- Reid Health's
Advanced Heart Failure Center recently celebrated a milestone in helping
patients who are living with heart failure, passing 1,000 enrollees in the
program.
The clinic
works with those who have advanced heart failure to help them feel better and
live longer. Treatment is tailored to each patient's needs, guiding them from
evaluation to education to stabilization.
Through the program, patients are better able to take
control of their condition, improve their quality of life and life expectancy,
and prevent unnecessary and costly emergency room and inpatient hospital
treatments.
"We work with
our patients to teach them how to slow the progression of their disease," said Cardiologist
Rubinder Dab, MD. "Together, we can help them enjoy fuller, longer lives."
Those who have
been diagnosed with advanced heart failure are potential candidates for the
clinic. Once enrolled, patients work with specialized navigators to learn how
to manage their condition and what changes to look for in their symptoms that
could lead to possible hospitalization. Navigators also are available to help
patients get easy and prompt access to care should it be needed.
If you have been diagnosed with heart
failure, ask your doctor about the Reid
Advanced Heart Failure Center. To schedule an appointment or for more
information, call (765) 962-1337, ext. 6435.
