Feel like you’re sitting on the sidelines, missing out on life? Life after heart surgery or a heart attack can feel overwhelming. How do you climb the stairs, get to work, or play with your kids? What was once normal for you is now exhausting.
Our approach to cardiac rehab
Willis Knighton offers care to change your world from beginning to end. Your heart condition might require specialized treatment such as heart surgery, angioplasty, stent or other heart procedures. After that, our cardiovascular rehabilitation team helps you recover and maintain a healthy heart.
Phase 1 is delivered by a nurse educator while you are still in the hospital.
Phase 2 is a three-month medically supervised program available at each Willis Knighton Fitness Center. It includes:
- Monitored exercise
- Nutrition classes
- Wellness support to help you adjust to your heart condition
Phase 3 is a two-month transition program that helps you move to unmonitored medical fitness at a Willis Knighton Fitness Center.
Our cardiac rehab program is for any person at high risk for cardiovascular disease, providing you with preventive techniques for a heart healthy lifestyle.
