Heart-to-Heart Support Group

There When You Need Us
Our cardiac patients and their families receive vital information and assistance from our Heart-to-Heart volunteers. Many of these dedicated volunteers have been Heart Institute patients themselves, or have a spouse who has. They provide emotional support and education to cardiac patients and their families during hospitalization and, if needed, after discharge. Following discharge, recovering cardiac patients receive phone calls to check their progress, as well as cards and correspondence from the Heart-to-Heart staff.

If you or your spouse is a heart attack survivor you can volunteer as a patient and family liaison in our Heart-to-Heart organization. Our volunteers are greatly appreciated and are rewarded for the thousands of hours of time they continue to devote to Regional year after year. They are a vital part of our hospital's operations and a priceless resource. Call our volunteer services office at 205-752-5050 weekdays to learn how you can share your smile, talents, experience and understanding.
