ELDER HEART HEALTH 25 years of dedication to
Care with Dignity and Comfort for Chronic Heart Disease
Chronic heart disease (CHD) is a leading cause of disability as we age. Managing CHD goes beyond extending life—it’s about improving quality of life with dignity and comfort. People with CHD face physical, emotional, and social challenges, requiring comprehensive and compassionate care.
CHD includes conditions like congestive heart failure, coronary artery disease, heart valve problems, and arrhythmias; often leading to symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, chest pain, and fluid retention. Although medical advances have improved treatment, CHD remains a lifelong condition needing continuous care and support.
A patient-centered approach is vital for managing CHD. This means addressing each person’s unique needs, values, and preferences. Open communication with healthcare providers is essential to ensure informed decisions about medications, treatments, and lifestyle changes. As the disease progresses, it’s important to focus on maintaining dignity and comfort, and for many, that includes aging at home.
Family members and caregivers play a key role in supporting individuals with CHD. However, caregiving can be overwhelming. Caregivers need access to resources, education, and emotional support to avoid burnout. That’s why respite care services and caregiver support programs are so crucial—they help ensure that both the patient and the caregiver can continue to experience a life of dignity, comfort, and lasting well-being.
For 25 years, Family Caregivers Network has been providing care with dignity, comfort, and support to both the individuals with chronic illnesses, and the caregivers that care for them. For more information on how we can help you and your loved one, please give us a call or visit our website!
