Welcome everyone to the Melanin Initiative!
“In healthcare, there is often too much information and not enough time. Here at The Melanin Initiative, we avoid TMI by breaking things down into language you can understand, we create a safe space to ask your questions, and share our nursing perspective without taking too much of your time."
By the end of the episode, it’s our goal you’ll be able to:
- Define CHF or congestive heart failure
- Discuss the signs and symptoms, complications
- List how to avoid hospitalization
- Describe Diet and weight management recommendations
- Understand common medications and side effects
