Cardiology, also known as the study of the heart and its functions, is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions that affect a person's cardiovascular health and overall well-being.

 

Pulmonology is the field of medicine that focuses specifically on the respiratory system, which includes the organs that help you breathe.

Pulmonology improves patient breathing.

Our pulmonologists:

  • Diagnose respiratory conditions and recommend treatment strategies
  • Act as a liaison between your primary care physicians, therapists, nurses, and you
  • Meet with your family regarding your rehab process and what to expect after discharge, leading to increased patient and family satisfaction

Cardiopulmonary
Care Importance

Given that approximately 67% of hospital readmissions are related to cardiopulmonary decompensations, our cardiology program plays a vital role in reducing patient readmissions and emergency department visits. Many cardiac issues can be effectively managed within skilled nursing facilities, minimizing the need for disruptive hospital transfers. With more than 1 in 5 skilled nursing facility patients having a diagnosis of COPD and 68% of readmissions being respiratory related conditions, it's important to take a proactive approach to pulmonary care as well.

Cardiology improves heart health.

Our cardiologists:

  • Improve Care Coordination: Our cardiology teams can work closely with your facility's medical team, ensuring seamless coordination of care for patients with complex heart conditions
  • Enable proactive identification and management of heart-related risk factors and early intervention in case of warning signs through regular visits
  • Reduce Hospital Transfers: With in-facility expertise, many cardiac issues can be managed within the nursing home, reducing the need for disruptive hospital transfers
  • Provide Faster Response to Emergencies: In critical cardiac situations, an in-facility cardiology team can provide immediate intervention, potentially saving lives by reducing response time
