Leading Innovations in Care for Vulnerable Populations With CardioMetabolic Conditions
Abstract
Health disparities continue to be a concern among nurses. Individuals with coronary heart disease demonstrate a high frequency of emergency department (ED) visits to manage acute and chronic symptoms. ED revisits are often attributed to poor access to primary care, premature ED discharge, advanced age, and lack of social support.
