Cardiac Rehabilitation

Cardiac rehabilitation is our customized program of exercise and education. Your physician may recommend cardiac rehab to help you return to better health after a heart attack or if you have certain other heart conditions. Our goals are to help you regain strength, improve cardiac function, prevent your condition from worsening, and reduce other risk factors and threat of future heart problems.

Cardiac Rehabilitation Phases

  • Phase I: In-hospital recovery
  • Phase II: Outpatient cardiac conditioning (begins as soon as 4 weeks after discharge)
  • Phase III: Maintenance phase emphasizing long-term lifestyle changes, such as a regular exercise program.

Our health care team will evaluate your physical abilities, medical limitations and other conditions you may have. Don’t worry if you’ve never exercised before, our team will make sure the program moves at a pace you are comfortable with.

Medicare covers 80% of the cost of cardiac rehab up to 36 sessions. Most private insurance policies also cover some or all of the cost.
