Reframing the role and impact of pharmacy in heart failure care

27 September 2024

Heart failure (HF) is often interconnected with other chronic diseases (including ischaemic heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, atrial fibrillation, and obesity), creating a complex web of health considerations. The interconnectivity manifests in various ways, influencing identification, diagnosis, and treatment of these conditions. Community pharmacists and their teams are ideally placed to raise HF awareness, identify those at risk and be the driving force behind earlier detection and referral to primary care partners for screening, diagnosis and intervention. At this event, the “Heart Failure Pharmacy Toolkit” to support pharmacists in providing a range of HF pharmacy services will be presented.
