This work is close to my heart ❤️ I’m grateful to join colleagues from @HFSA & @ASPCardio on the 1st joint scientific statement reframing #FunctionNotFailure care—seeing the whole person, across their entire healthspan --- NOT as fragmented problems in silos.🧘‍♀️ From “at-risk” to advanced HF—prevention must be woven into every stage! Grateful to @DrMarthaGulati & 🌟colleagues for sharing this vision.
