Cardiac Rehabilitation
The Cardiac Rehabilitation program takes you unique needs to heart, custom-designing a plan to help you attain and maintain good health.
Rehabilitation begins while you're still in the hospital. The cardiac rehab team will help you and your family understand your heart condition and the lifestyle changes needed to decrease the risk of recurring illness.
Rehabilitation continues on an outpatient basis, including an individually designed exercise program, educational sessions, counseling on lifestyle modification and stress education.
Pulmonary Rehabilitation
Pulmonary Rehabiliation enables many people to enjoy more productive lives by helping them better cope with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), including conditions such as emphysema, chronic bronchitis, asthma and other chronic lung disorders.
Our Pulmonary Rehabilitation team offers you an individualized program of education, counseling and exercise that will help you toward your goals. In Pulmonary Rehabilitation you can learn techniques for controlling shortness of breath or managing the tasks of daily living. Also, we offer smoking cessation classes for those who need to stop.
