Cardiac Rehab Services Preventive Rehabilitation through Education, Heart-Healthy Activities and Behaviors

Heart trouble changes everything.

Diet, exercise, activities, old habits -- nearly every corner of one's life is touched by the sobering experience of a heart attack or a diagnosis of heart disease.

Then come the questions: "How bad am I?"; "What can I do to get better?"; "What should I not do any more?"; What foods are O.K. to eat?"; "How can I make sure this doesn't happen again?"

We can help make it a change for the better.

Working with you and your physician, Mercy Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation Program is here to answer the questions and uncertainties that follow a heart event . . . and to guide you through a safe return to a happy, healthy life.

Cardiac rehabilitation works because you want it to work.

No one can make you change your ways; it's completely up to you. But, with self-determination in place, Mercy's Cardiac Rehabilitation Program provides all other tools you'll need to rebuild your health.
