Abstract
Background: Exercise has been shown to have favorable effects in patients with heart failure (HF). Even modest exercise can reduce blood pressure and blood glucose levels, reduce stress and depression, improve muscle mass, improve cardiovascular endurance, improve aerobic capacity, and even assist with remaining independent in the living environment. Despite all of this evidence, HF patients are frequently underserved by physical and occupational therapy in the home healthcare setting. This is in large part due to lack of confidence in delivering care to HF patients.
