🐾🐶 It's National Puppy Day! Celebrate with us by learning about our Puppy Heart Murmur Clinic, which offers you peace of mind if your vet finds a heart murmur! 🩺❤️ A heart murmur, often detected by your vet during a check-up, is caused by turbulent blood flow within the heart. While most dogs with heart murmurs have heart disease, sometimes they're unrelated to significant issues. However, the presence of a murmur alone doesn't determine the severity of a heart problem or the need for treatment. Understanding which patients benefit from treatment is where our cardiology expertise shines. Explore our Puppy Murmur Clinic to ensure your pet's heart health >> https://bit.ly/3IPoqHM #DWRVeterinarySpecialists #ProudlyDWR #ProudlyLinnaeus #NationalPuppyDay

The weight of doctor visits, medications can feel like you’re drowning.  But there’s hope. Start by taking back control in small ways:   →Simplify: Focus on one or two important tasks a day. It’s okay to prioritize rest. →Find Your Tribe: Yes! Sharing with others who understand can make a world of difference. →Breathe: Simple, calming breathing techniques can ground you when everything feels chaotic.    With nearly 50 years of nursing experience and my own journey through autoimmune diseases, I’m here to help. Let’s find a way forward together. 🌟 #ChronicIllnessWarrior #AutoimmuneSupport #NurseWithExperience #FindYourPurpose #HealingAndHope #YouAreNotAlone

During the month of February, we will be sharing information about American Heart Month. Hospice of New Jersey provides a specialized level of care to hospice patients with heart diseases. Did You Know? Four out of five people don’t know they have heart failure until their symptoms are severe enough to put them in the emergency room. Heart failure is a condition in which the heart is not pumping blood throughout the body as well as it should. While heart failure may shorten a patient’s life, good medical management can help a patient live longer with a better quality of life. Early diagnosis gives doctors more time to find a treatment that can keep your symptoms in check and prevent other health issues. The symptoms of heart failure can come on very slowly, and they are easy to mistake for normal signs of aging. To support a hospice plan of care, the combined effects of the primary cardiopulmonary condition and any identified secondary condition(s) and/or co-morbidities should be such that most beneficiaries with the identified impairments would have a prognosis of 6 months or less. #AmericanHeartMonth #OurHearts #OurCareFamily
