Interdisciplinary Education (Intervention Group)
The outpatient interdisciplinary class was an additional, optional education program offered after discharge and overseen by a multidisciplinary team of specialty staff. The team comprised a pharmacist, physical therapist, registered dietician, psychologist, NP, and 2 HF nurses. They conducted the 3-hour class, with each discipline having 20-25 minutes to present evidence-based self-management recommendations. Patients hospitalized with a primary or secondary diagnosis of HF and associated structural heart changes were mailed appointment letters after discharge, inviting them to attend the outpatient interdisciplinary class. No incentives were provided to attend.
