ICD Patient Education Class

Has your doctor referred you for a cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD)? Have you recently had an ICD implanted? 

You are invited to a virtual information session to find out more about the implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD).

Health care providers and a person living with an ICD will provide information about:

  • Why you or your family member may need an ICD
  • How an ICD works
  • What happens during the ICD surgery
  • Living with an ICD
