What happens in advanced heart failure?

Advance Care Planning is important for heart failure patients to make plans about their future health care, especially when they are not in a position to make or communicate their healthcare choices. Shared decision-making among patients, their families, and the medical team in establishing the goals of care should be initiated early.

Unlike cancer patients, some heart failure patients can experience an unpredictable pattern of decline. Learn more on Advance Care Planning at NHCS here.
