Cardiac Rehab

What is Phase 2 Cardiac Rehab?

Phase 2 Cardiac Rehabilitation is a medically supervised program designed for people recovering from heart attack, stent placement, bypass surgery, valve repair, stable chest pain, heart transplant or stable heart failure. This stage of rehab typically begins shortly after discharge from the hospital and provides the guidance, structure, and encouragement you need to safely rebuild your strength and confidence as well as decreasing risk of another heart event.

What to Expect in the Program

In our program, you'll attend structured exercise sessions in a safe, monitored environment where your heart rhythm, blood pressure, and progress is carefully tracked. Alongside exercise, we proved education on nutrition, stress management, and lifestyle changes that can help you reduce risk factors and maintain a healthy heart. Each session is designed to gradually improve your endurance, strength, and overall cardiovascular fitness. Enrolling in Phase 2 Cardiac Rehab is one of the most important steps you can take for your heart health.

Our Cardiac Wellness staff will guide you through each session and tailor your program as needed. When appropriate, your plan may also be coordinated with your healthcare team, including physicians, physical therapists, and family members.
