Cardiac Rehabilitation
The Cardiac Health Center of NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, in its tenth year, provides 12 weeks of personalized exercise training, nutritional education, and stress management for patients who have had a heart attack, heart surgery, balloon angioplasty, stable angina, or who have a high risk for cardiovascular disease. Each person's cardiovascular health plan is developed in collaboration with their physician and is customized to meet individual need. The Cardiovascular Health Center provides our patients the necessary tools to successfully return to the best possible lifestyle while reducing the risk of future health problems by:
- Focusing on patient safety. A physician supervises all telemetry-monitored sessions. An experienced exercise physiologist and a specially trained nurse also provide individual attention.
- Using state-of-the-art technology. A customized exercise program is formulated for each individual based on ability.
- Providing educational programs. Patients can receive counseling in a variety of areas, such as healthy nutrition, stress management, weight loss, and smoking cessation, to help them succeed in reducing their risk of future heart problems.
