Synopsis
Heart failure affects nearly a million people in the UK and 80% of diagnoses are made following an emergency admission. This session explores the Health Innovation Network’s national programme to transform heart failure care through early diagnosis, equitable access to evidence-based therapies, and innovative service models. Speakers will share insights from regional implementations, including Yorkshire's Heart Failure Academy, Somerset's Heart Failure champions programme and Wessex's work with innovators across the health and care system.
