Shared System of Care /HF Shared Care /Heart Failure Learning Plan Overriding Goals To improve the comfort and confidence of family physicians in diagnosing and treating their patients with and Heart Failure. To improve the quality of patient care available in non-specialized general practice for adults with and/or Heart Failure either as a primary diagnosis or comorbid with other health problems and chronic diseases. This will be accomplished by the use of tools that engage the patient in shared partnership and that lead to correct diagnosis and management of their condition. This will be measured by qualitative surveys and symptom and function changes. Learning Outcomes By the end of the implementation, participants will be able to 1. Use assessment tools to identify patients with possible and/or Heart Failure 2. Use evidence based treatment strategies for management of patients with HF and 3. Be aware of available HF and patient education tools and understand how to access and utilize them in their practices 4. Access available HF and resources and utilize them in their practices 5. Describe the indication for referring a patient to a heart function clinic, internist or cardiologist 6. Describe the indication for referring a patient to a respirologist or pulmonary therapist 7. Describe the roles of various diagnostic tests in the overall care plan for patients with HF and 8. Identify opportunities for shared care and opportunities to create practice efficiency in caring for patients with HF and Key Messages in this program include 1. Heart Failure and are typically under-identified and under-diagnosed. 2. A large percentage of patients with mild to moderate Heart Failure and can be effectively managed in primary care. 3. Heart Failure and are often co-morbid in a patient. 4. Appropriate pharmacotherapy can improve quality of life in patients with and Heart Failure. 5. Engaging and supporting patient self-management is a key enabler in chronic disease management. 6. It s not all up to you. Heart Failure and are chronic conditions and cannot be fixed but can be managed more easily with shared responsibility, patient engagement and negotiation.
