In September, the local chapter of Mended Hearts celebrated 30 years of supporting the Inova Fairfax Medical Campus (IFMC) community. Mended Hearts, a national organization and the largest peer-to-peer cardiac support network in the world, brings volunteers who have already had heart surgery into the rooms of patients who have just undergone surgery. “Our mission is to bring hope into the hospital room of the recovering patient,” says Kevin Houlihan, visiting chairperson for Chapter 200, the Northern Virginia Chapter.
Twenty-six Mended Hearts volunteers visit patients at IFMC seven days a week, 365 days a year.
