Cardiac Rehab services at SMC are designed to help patients with heart disease recover faster and return to full and productive lives. People who have heart disease, such as angina or heart failure, heart attack, coronary bypass surgery, or stents to coronary arteries are some of those who can benefit from cardiac rehab.
Cardiac Rehab has two major parts:
- Exercise training – to help learn how to exercise safely, strengthen your muscles, and improve your stamina. Your exercise plan will be based on your individual ability, needs, and interests.
- Education, training and support in Risk factors and lifestyle modification to help understand a person’s heart condition and find ways to reduce your risk of future heart problems.
Cardiac rehab can make a difference. It is a safe and an effective way to help a person feel better faster, get stronger, reduce stress, reduce the risks of future heart problems, and develop a new healthier lifestyle.
