Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation

If you have heart disease or chronic lung disease, your physician has likely discussed with you the importance of exercise and a proper diet for managing your illness. We can help you achieve your goals for a healthier lifestyle through our outpatient cardiopulmonary rehabilitation services.

Our cardiopulmonary rehabilitation area is located at the hospital. We offer cardiac rehabilitation services to individuals who have experienced chest pain or a heart attack or have undergone open-heart surgery. Pulmonary rehabilitation services are offered to individuals with chronic lung disease. 

We accept patients upon physician referral and will keep your physician informed about your progress throughout your participation in the program. When you are admitted into our program, we will develop a telemetry-monitored exercise program individualized to your needs. The length of time you receive rehabilitation services may be determined by your insurance company. Patients may stay in the program up to 12 weeks. 

Cardiac and pulmonary rehab patients receive services on a regular basis. We have various types of exercise equipment for use. During exercise, our cardiac rehab patients' blood pressure, heart rate and rhythm will be monitored closely. We closely monitor our pulmonary rehab patients' oxygen levels, blood pressure, heart rate and rhythm during their exercise program.
