Course Description:

The third course in the HF series continues to build on understanding of the pathophysiology of
HF by identifying signs and symptoms of worsening HF through direct clinical assessment and
via the use of telehealth systems. While this course is aimed at nurses and therapists across all
settings, home care clinicians in particular must possess a high level of knowledge to effectively
assess and monitor for signs of worsening HF during each home visit. Such knowledge provides
the clinician with confidence in assessment, early identification of worsening HF, and in patient
education.
