A group setting allowing patients with implanted devices (new or replacement) and their significant others an opportunity to share stories and receive detailed information regarding living with their ICD and open discussion regarding cardiac disease, lifestyle changes as a result of living with an ICD and gaining a better understanding of the device.

Living with Series

Several times throughout the year, we offer educational events typically in the evening at Baylor Scott & White Heart Vascular Hospital or Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center – Fort Worth. These are free and open to the public and often a light dinner is provided to attendees.
