Useful Information

Disease conditions and prognoses are discussed thoroughly with clients. In addition, we discuss treatment options along with the benefits, possible side effects, and costs. Intensive care treatments are available for patients requiring hospitalization (e.g., patients with congestive heart failure, pericardial effusion, and syncope due to arrhythmia or arrhythmia evaluation).
