At the Yale New Haven Hospital, patients have begun using EDI in support of their cardiac rehabilitation programs. The lack of psychosocial support has been identified as a contributor of low patient adherence levels, and Yale and the EDI Institute are jointly researching the use of EDI to improve health outcomes for cardiac patients.
This image was created and shared by a woman during a peer support group at Yale. The image allowed her to speak emotionally about the frustrations she has experienced during recovery from her cardiac event, and her hopes for the future.
