Heart Failure Clinic
When the heart is too weak to pump enough of blood on its own, this is called heart failure. The Heart Failure Clinic offers testing, education and support for those suffering from heart failure, or those who are deemed to be at risk.
At the clinic, patients receive testing to determine how well their heart is working, as well as counseling and education on medication, diet, exercise and other lifestyle choices that can help patient’s quality of life.
A five-week educational support group is also available to patients and family members. It delivers updated information on all aspects of heart failure, and allows patients to share experiences with others who are coping with the same life-changing situation.
