Cardiac Rehabilitation
Did you know?
- One in three men and one and three women will develop heart disease.
- More people die from heart disease than all forms of cancer combined.
Cardiac Rehabilitation is about improving your quality of life after heart disease. It’s about helping you via lifestyle changes like improved physical fitness, nutrition and education.
The Cardiac Rehabilitation program features experienced nurses and exercise physiologists who work with patients to design individually tailored programs that focus on exercise and healthy lifestyle changes to aid in recovery from heart surgery, cardiac procedures, or chronic heart conditions.
Most insurance plans cover participation in medically supervised cardiac rehabilitation programs. Providence offers cardiac rehabilitation on the hospital’s campus for follow-up and support.
Phases of Treatment
- Phase 1 Monitored exercise following cardiac surgery or procedure
- Phase 2 More rigorous exercise under care of cardiac staff
- Phase 3 Set your own program/maintenance
