LVAD Apartments
To better serve our LVAD patients, the hospital has three "LVAD apartments" located within a few blocks of Intermountain Medical Center. The apartments provide patients and their caregivers with a home-like environment and an opportunity to adjust to living life with an LVAD.
The apartments also allow the patient to temporarily live close to the hospital for support, further discharge education, and medical follow-up. There is a small daily charge to those staying at the LVAD apartments.
For more information about LVAD apartments, please call (877) 784-2226.
