Construction of the new $42.3 million fifth floor addition — including a heart failure unit — is complete at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne, Ind., according to an Inside Indiana Business report.
The new heart failure unit is focused on caring for patients with this specific condition and reducing the rate of re-hospitalization.
“Having a dedicated heart failure unit allows us to provide expanded services for patients managing this serious, chronic condition,” Mark Jones, MD, director of cardiovascular services at Lutheran Hospital, said in the report. “The new space brings together the high-quality care, new technology, treatment options and education available at Lutheran.”
