Cardiac Care
We offer a special program to monitor and care for patients diagnosed with congestive heart failure (CHF). Our staff undergoes specific education to recognize the signs and symptoms of CHF. We focus on:
- Identifying those residents with a history and diagnosis of congestive heart failure
- Monitoring fluid intake
- Ensuring that all meals meet the standards for appropriate dietary restrictions
- Enabling residents with CHF to continue rehabilitation
- Monitoring weight gain to ensure early identification and treatment of CHF symptoms
- Monitoring oxygen levels at rest and during rehabilitation
- Ensuring that residents are evaluated by a cardiologist to evaluate signs/symptoms of heart failure
