Summary

Heart failure is a very common condition and is one of the main reasons people are admitted to hospital. There are many things people with heart failure can do to manage their condition at home. Unfortunately many people do not have enough information to do this and need to come back to the hospital because their heart failure got worse. This study will look at different ways to help people learn more about heart failure and how to manage their condition at home.
