Perspectives on Optimizing the Care of People with Heart Failure and Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement

As a nursing profession and in collaboration with our interprofessional team colleagues, nurses have access to a wealth of clinical guidelines, consensus statements, and research evidence about how to best care for patients with heart failure. Our patient education resources are endless. Why is care not optimized for everyone? New perspectives may help us partner with our patients and colleagues to improve care through better understanding. Appreciating the beliefs of a heart failure patient, his family, and other influential individuals may help to close gaps in self-care.
