Mayo Clinic College of Medicine professor and cardiologist Dr. Gerald Fletcher was the featured speaker at a luncheon to mark the start of Baptist Golden Triangle’s new heart failure initiatives.
More than 70 staff physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses and other clinicians were on hand to hear Dr. Fletcher, who encouraged them to look at ways to reduce readmissions of heart failure patients.
Baptist Golden Triangle’s new heart failure initiatives include an inpatient and outpatient education and support group for congestive heart failure patients.
