Disease Management

Typically a chronic, long-term disease, heart failure requires daily monitoring and a healthy lifestyle for successful management.

The Advanced Heart Failure & Transplant Center team guides patients every step of the way. We provide counseling in our clinic, by phone, in your home or in the hospital, depending on your unique situation and needs.

Whether you've had surgery or another procedure, or simply require day-to-day disease management, your tailored program will include nutrition guidelines, exercise training and education about – and dosing information for – your medication(s). Our nurse clinicians will help you set goals and monitor your progress toward a healthier lifestyle.

Your health management team will also keep you informed of new therapies, technologies and trials that may help you in the management of your disease.
