The Stead Heart & Vascular Center's Heart Failure Program at Pomona Valley Hospital Medical Center (PVHMC) is designed to help patients deal with and recover from heart failure. We partner with your primary physician in order to provide the best possible care, treatment, and education for you. Our program wants to equip you to live a healthy, active life as you effectively manage your heart disease.
Heart failure is not a prison sentence-many people with heart failure lead happy, fulfilled lives because they learn how to pay attention to their bodies and how to take care of themselves. Through healthy lifestyle changes and proper medication, you can overcome your heart failure and learn how to lead an active life in spite of it.
Our program specializes in education and peers support for those living with heart failure. We can help patients:
Our support groups help provide mutual support and advice to manage the simple aspects of heart failure that are able to be controlled. By understanding your disease and your health, we can help you begin building the routine that results in the highest quality of life for you.
The Stead Heart & Vascular Center at PVHMC has won numerous awards because we combine state-of-the-art technology with the most highly-trained physicians and compassionate staff in the region. Our center has been recognized nationally for our high level of care and compliance.
