Advanced Cardiac Care
Improving Cardiac Care through Collaboration
We are pleased to announce a collaboration with the American Heart Association (AHA) and the National Partnership for Healthcare and Hospice Innovation (NPHI) to improve the quality of life for patients and families living with heart disease. The collaboration means that cardiac patients receive advanced cardiac treatments and therapies, in their home.
This program greatly reduces the likelihood of a hospital admission.
In-home specialized therapies for our cardiac patients will include:
- IV diuretics
- Milrinone and other Inotrope infusions
- LVAD therapy
- 24/7 support and access to expert symptom & medication management
- Care will be coordinated with the patient’s Cardiologists.
This collaboration combines the expertise of the AHA, and nearly 75 of the nation’s leading nonprofit palliative and hospice care organizations—combining best practices to provide the best symptom management and support.
Our team is available 24/7, offering support and peace of mind. In the event that acute care needs become too difficult to manage at home, or a need for respite care arises, patients and families have access to our KBR Hospice Home for short-term around-the-clock care.
