The Comfort of Home for Chronic Heart Failure is a must-have for the over 5 million families (in the United States alone) dealing with this major disorder. Many books have been written about heart failure for physicians, nurses and other health care providers. A few have been written for the heart failure patients themselves. This is the first to be written specifically for the caregiver until now, the silent partner in the war on this deadly disorder. This book is wonderfully written with detailed explanations and discussions as well as quick bullet points on each page to make reading more educational and fun. While the book is targeted to the caregivers, it is a must-read for health care providers as well, providing details about home care, financial resources and end-of-life planning not available in the existing medical textbooks. It will forever occupy a key spot on my office bookshelf. David O.
