Cardiac rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary medically supervised program that provides individualized exercise, education, and support for lifestyle modification for people with heart problems. The program is overseen by highly trained/ACLS certified healthcare professionals under the direction of a physician. A physician referral is required for participation.
Who needs Cardiac Rehabilitation?
People who are recovering from a heart attack, heart bypass surgery, angioplasty, heart valve surgery, heart transplant, and those with stable angina, should be part of a cardiac rehabilitation program. Also, anyone at risk for developing coronary artery disease may benefit from a team approach to education and exercise.
