Cardiac
Solutions
In order to provide complete clinical expertise to patients with Cardiovascular
Disease, Hygieia Home Health, Inc. ("HHHI") clinicians are updated
with the most recent information and management techniques through ongoing
in-services and continuing education. We realize that patients with Cardiovascular
Disease need education to manage the illness; therefore, we incorporate
specific directives that address the unique protocols for hypertension,
angina, myocardial infarction and congestive heart failure. In addition,
patients who have undergone cardiac surgery often struggle with feelings
of fear and apprehension, requiring additional assurance and education.
The clinicians at HHHI are sensitive to these needs, and they are committed
to instructing their patients on the diagnosis, its effects and how it should
influence their daily routines. Clinicians educate patients on such topics
as their ADSL, medications, diet restrictions, and controlling risk factors
such as smoking, weight and exercise.
Our clinicians
will:
| |
•
Thoroughly assess each cardiac patient
• Develop and assist each patient with a customized home health
and exercise plan designed to meet the specific needs of the individual
illness
• Educate and actively involve the patient and caregivers in
managing the patient’s condition
HHHI has extensive experience in dealing with post-surgery patients,
and our clinicians give special attention to those who are anxious
about managing their illness. |
Benefits:
The instruction and guidance in our cardiac program will greatly enhance
a patient’s knowledge of cardiovascular disease, and significantly
improve their ability to handle the condition. Some of the resulting key
benefits include:
| |
•
Reduced visits to the physician office and emergency room
• Treatment compliance and satisfaction of the patient and the
entire health care team
• Improved overall health of the patient by controlling risk
factors
• Additional peace of mind for the patients, caregivers and
other family members |
