Don’t smoke
Smoking harms the heart and lungs. If you smoke, it can lead on to many other health problems. STOP NOW!!
If you need help to stop smoking, talk to your Nurse or your doctor. You may also contact the Smokeline on 0800 848484.
Get immunised
People with heart failure can quickly become very unwell with influenza or pneumonia. It is important that you see your doctor to get the appropriate immunizations (jabs). You can discuss which immunisations you’ve already had and which you’ll need with your Nurse.
