."" . . every critical examination of HF therapy in the United
States has documented that we are not using all the weapons in our
arsenal. We know what works, yet we are not systematically applying
these proven therapies."
"-- from the Introduction
If you are interested in a better way to treat heart failure,
this book is for you. Dr. Michael McIvor - who has taught thousands
of healthcare professionals how to effectively care for patients
with chronic HF through CME symposia - takes a logical,
step-by-step approach to setting up and operating the kind of
program that reduces hospital admissions and improves patient
care.
Establishing a Heart Failure Program: The Essential Guide
answers the different questions posed by physicians, nurse
practitioners, nurses, and hospital administrators, all of whom
need to work as a team to achieve success. The three major sections
of the book address:
Taking the first steps toward building your heart failure program -
developing a business plan, choosing your model of care, and making
accurate financial projections
Assembling the pieces of your program - managers, front line staff,
and the physical facility
Day-to-day operations
A companion website presents forms you can download and use in
your own heart failure center. Drawing from experience, Dr. McIvor
helps you avoid common problems by identifying potential problems
and sharing advice that has proven effective to your colleagues. He
gives you the essential tools - unavailable elsewhere - to set up
and maintain a heart failure program that achieves superior
clinical outcomes.
