Heart month falls in February with all of the Valentine’s Day treats. Don’t let the pressure to get the perfect gift raise your blood pressure! One holiday in February involves sweets and treats while the other recognizes healthy habits to prevent heart disease.
Heart Failure is a condition resulting from the heart’s inability to pump enough blood throughout the body. Treatment involves monitoring and self-care at home. Diet, exercise, and medication are the keys to success.

We have unique expertise to train, support, and help you manage your heart disease at home and keep you from going to the hospital with complications.
