Registered Nurse Brenda Hiebert with client Rick Balliett.

Improvements at the Heart Function Clinic at Pasqua Hospital mean clients now experience 87 per cent fewer appointment cancellations (fewer than 3 a month) and 38 per cent less waiting. In 2015, there is an average of 25 clients waiting 4-6 weeks for an appointment – down from 40 in 2012. Clients are required to move less during appointments as clinicians now come to them and patients have access to a pharmacist, a dietitian (on request), a nurse and a cardiologist at each visit.
