What is Congestive Heart Failure?
Congestive heart failure occurs when the heart muscle does not pump enough blood to meet the body’s needs. The failure can occur when the heart does not pump properly (systolic) or does not fill adequately (diastolic). Heart failure does not mean the heart is about to stop working completely, but it does mean that the heart is failing to keep sufficient blood flow.

“The opportunity to be a part of cardiac rehab is a true blessing!”
The ACS Heart Failure Clinic helped keep Mr. Thompson out of the hospital for a near heart failure hospital admission in April of 2017. He enjoys traveling with his wife, gardening and excelling at cardiac rehab.
“This is the best I have felt in 3 or 4 years. I feel like I am 16 again!”
The ACS Heart Failure Clinic helped Mr. Ezernack drop to New York Heart Association Classification 1 with aggressive management in our outpatient heart failure clinic. He currently has no signs or symptoms of heart failure and improved kidney function. He is no longer taking a fluid pill with his new treatment plan developed by his ACS team.
