The ICD Support Group of Manitoba was formed in 2007. Our mission is to provide support, education and the opportunity for ICD patients, candidates for ICD’s and their families and friends to interact with others in similar circumstances through:
- regular interactive meetings and newsletters
- volunteers who are ICD patients or family members offering individual support to ICD patients/families including those waiting for a device
While we operate independently from St. Boniface General Hospital we enjoy an excellent working relationship with the Doctors, nurses and staff of the Pacemaker/Defibrillator Clinic.
ICD = Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator and/or Cardiac Resyncronization Therapy – Defibrillator (CRT-D)
