At the Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) Clinic at Wenatchee Medical Center, we focus on helping heart failure patients proactively manage their heart disease and improve their quality of life.
Our goal is to reduce hospitalizations and improve heart failure patient care by providing intensive personalized therapy and by developing individual programs that educate patients about heart failure, optimize chronic medications and help patients manage their disease.
Congestive Heart Failure is a condition that develops slowly as a heart muscle weakens and loses strength to pump an adequate supply of blood throughout the body.
Common signs of heart failure include:
- Shortness of breath
- Increased heart rate
- Weight gain swelling of the feet or legs (edema)
- Fatigue
- Difficulty performing everyday tasks
There are positive steps you or a loved one can take to live with chronic heart failure. We specialize in helping you make the best recovery possible and preventing the likelihood of acute episodes of heart failure that put you back into the hospital. We have heart-care experts on-hand at all times to answer your questions and ensure that you have the best treatment.
The WVMC Congestive Heart Failure Clinic was founded with a vision of providing outstanding heart failure patient care to patients in North Central Washington and the Columbia Basin. We work hard to give you and your loved ones the tools you need to regain your quality of life.
