Managing your condition day to day, at home.
Heart failure and chronic wounds can take a toll not just physically, but emotionally and mentally. At Chicago Medical Group Heart Failure and Wounds, we understand the daily challenges and are here to support you with care that fits your life.
Life at Home with Heart Failure
Managing Symptoms
Shortness of breath, fatigue and swelling are common symptoms of chronic heart failure. Knowing your limits, using medications properly and resting when needed are all part of staying stable.
Diet & Fluid Control
Limiting sodium and monitoring fluid intake can reduce swelling and prevent your heart from working too hard. Our team can provide easy-to-follow guidance tailored to your needs.
