PHASE ll CARDIAC REHAB
CARDIAC REHAB HELPS OUR PATIENTS ACHIEVE THE VERY BEST HEALTH FOLLOWING A CARDIAC EVENT
Phase II Cardiac Rehab is an individualized exercise and education program to help our patients achieve the very best physical, psychological and functional status after a cardiac event.
Here at Murray County Medical Center we assist patients in returning to activities important to getting back to a quality lifestyle, educate them and their family in healthy lifestyle alternatives and are here to answer any questions that may come up during recovery.
This is an outpatient, hospital-based program that must be prescribed by a physician. Cardiac Rehab is covered by Medicare, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, and most other insurance companies.
WHAT CARDIAC EVENTS QUALIFY YOU FOR CARDIAC REHAB?
CARDIAC REHAB REQUIRES A COMPLETE MEDICAL HISTORY AND BRIEF PHYSICAL EXAM. PATIENTS ARE CONNECTED TO TELEMETRY DURING EACH SESSION. AN INDIVIDUALIZED EXERCISE PROGRAM WILL BE DEVELOPED TO ASSIST YOU IN REGAINING STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE.
