Biography
Heather Vasioutovitch has her passion in cardiology and in improving the health of each individual in a holistic way. This stems from her years of caring for cardiac patients as an RN and now as an ARNP- to seeing the essential need in addressing not only the physical parts of her patient’s health and wellbeing, but the mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects. She is involved in academia through online teaching and aims to continue spreading the importance of screening for depression in individuals with various cardiovascular diseases. Her goal is to increase researching in this specific area, ultimately changing the way providers care for their patients – always with the patients at the center.
