Cardiac Rehab
Cardiac Rehabilitation is a comprehensive approach to helping individuals with cardiovascular
diseases improve the quality of their lives. The purposes of the Redwood Area Hospital Cardiac Rehabilitation Program are:
*To increase the functional exercise capacity of the patient
*To provide education regarding cardiovascular disease and risk factors associated with its development
*To help patients and their families deal with the emotional aspects of cardiovascular disease
Cardiac Rehabilitation is an outpatient, hospital-based program prescribed by your physician. The program is staffed by
specially trained registered nurses who are certified in Advanced Cardiac Life Support.
The program’s medical director is
a physician with training in cardiac rehabilitation.
