Heart failure in women: could a social prescription be the missing link?

NCT ID NCT06628973

First seen Mar 05, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tests whether social prescribing—connecting patients with community resources for issues like housing, transportation, or loneliness—can help women with heart failure stick to their medications and improve their quality of life. About 200 women at high social risk will be randomly assigned to receive either standard care or personalized support from a link worker. The goal is to see if addressing social needs leads to better health outcomes.
