Summary

The purpose of this study is to see how investigators may best improve treatment adherence and disease management for heart failure after hospital discharge. This is because the period after hospital discharge is critical to long-term recovery, overall quality of life, and prevention of future hospitalizations. In this study, a trained nurse interventionist will work with the participants to develop a personalized adherence enhancement strategy for heart failure diagnosis. The personalized adherence enhancement strategy is called EMPOWER.
