What we do
The Heart Failure Specialist Nurse Team supports patients with a confirmed diagnosis of heart failure that are registered with a South Warwickshire GP surgery.
The aim of the service is to help optimise patients onto evidence-based medications, reduce symptoms and to reduce the likelihood of hospital admission. The team works alongside other healthcare disciplines to aid recovery. We also support patients alongside district nurse and palliative teams if their heart failure condition is deemed palliative.
The team cover the whole of South Warwickshire. Patients are seen in nurse-led clinics across the area, aiming to be the most accessible to where they live.
