Health4Life Cardiac Rehabilitation
In our rehabilitation program, our trained professionals work as a team
to identify individual patient needs and risk factors. During monitored
exercise, we will counsel and educate you on healthy dietary habits, stress
management and coping skills. In the end, you will have the tools needed
to lead a healthier lifestyle and become confident with returning to your
usual daily activities.
Below is a description of the different phases of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation
that we offer:
Inpatient program / Phase I If you are staying in the hospital for heart care, we will answer questions
regarding your symptoms/event/procedure. We will help you identify risk
factors for future events and introduce methods to modify them. Another
major goal is to help you identify signs and symptoms and give you instructions
in the case of emergencies. Lastly, we teach you skills to manage home-activity
intensity, and bridge you to an outpatient rehab program in your area.
Outpatient Program / Phase II
Patients attend one-hour visits, usually two or three times per week for
up to 36 visits. Exercise is guided by physician prescription while feelings
of exertion, heart rhythm, and vital signs are monitored by other staff.
Regular education and counseling is also provided. We treat the whole
person in this phase.
Most insurance policies cover participation in an outpatient program, please
call us at 970.384.7555 to talk more about how this program can help you
or your loved one’s recovery.
