Essential to minimizing the consequences of heart disease is to understand its causes, manifestations, and treatments.
Education is a cornerstone of the cardiac care we provide for our patients and their families. We give patients the information they need in order to make informed decisions with us about their plan of care. Instruction can consist of one-on-one patient teaching, participation in self-help programs, written handouts for specific diseases and conditions, or exploration of the vast resources of our Patient and Family Learning Center.
Whether a patient, or the family member of a patient with heart disease, we hope the information in this section will take some of the mystery out of the condition, our medical center, and the process by which we diagnose and treat cardiac conditions.
