About

LVADStrong is a registered nonprofit charitable organization based in Boston, MA, dedicated to improving the lives of Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) patients and their communities. EIN: 33-2680376

Studies show that addressing the psychological and emotional challenges of living with an LVAD can significantly improve a patient’s quality of life and increase the likelihood of adherence to medical recommendations. This, in turn, contributes to reduced complications, fewer hospital readmissions, and improved survival rates.

Better patient outcomes not only enhance individual lives but also lead to increased capacity within hospitals and clinics, allowing more patients to access life-saving LVAD treatments. By reducing the strain on healthcare systems, LVADStrong’s advocacy efforts contribute to both saving lives and reducing healthcare costs. This dual impact forms a cornerstone of our mission to support LVAD patients and their families.
