The Heart of the Matter

Millions of Americans survive heart problems each year and strive to make
lifestyle changes to avoid further heart complications. If you have
experienced a heart attack, chest pain, or have been treated for heart
disease, Mercy's Cardiac Rehabilitation program can help you begin a
healthier life.

More than Fitness

The Cardiac Rehabilitation program at Mercy Medical Center provides exercise
recommendations and teaches coping strategies for heart disease through a
variety of programs and individual counseling. Mercy's Cardiac
Rehabilitation program helps you improve your health by reducing the
potential for additional heart problems through risk factor modification and
by helping you recognize signs and symptoms that require medical attention.

The Cardiac Rehabilitation Multidisciplinary team offers a secondary
prevention program which includes close monitoring, individualized exercise
sessions, educational classes and nutritional counseling.
