Course Description:
Among Medicare patients with heart failure (HF), it is estimated that 1 in 4 are readmitted within
30 days of hospital discharge. This HF certificate program consists of seven modules and is
aimed at nurses, therapists, and case managers working in all healthcare settings. Home care
clinicians in particular must possess a high level of knowledge to effectively assess and monitor
for signs of worsening HF, and all clinicians have responsibility for patient and family education.
The first course in this series focuses on helping clinicians understand how blood flows through
both the normal and the failing heart. The differences between systolic and diastolic HF are
explained. Clinicians will benefit from a greater understanding of two types of heart failure,
stages of HF, and how the body compensates for the failing heart.
