The Comfort of Home for Chronic Heart Failure is an invaluable compendium of useful and practical information to help patients and their caregivers manage chronic heart failure. The ideas and helpful hints go beyond heart failure care making this book a useful resource for any family dealing with a chronic medical condition.
