Cardiac Rehabilitation

People with heart disease or who recently had heart surgery can improve their cardiovascular health in a medically supervised setting.

Personalized Rehabilitation for Lifelong Heart Health

Starting an exercise program and making other changes may seem intimidating, or even frightening to someone who has had a heart attack or heart procedure. Cardiac rehabilitation provides a safe and secure environment to inspire long-term heart health and confidence.

Wellstar’s world-class cardiac rehabilitation team works together to help people learn lifelong heart-healthy behaviors and lower their risk for future heart issues. We support you to reach your optimum recovery after a cardiac event or procedure, such as a heart attack, angioplasty, stents, coronary artery bypass surgery, heart valve repair or replacement and heart or lung transplant.

Our team of clinical heart specialists design your customized plan and support you every step of the way. Together, cardiologists, nurses, exercise specialists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, behavioral health clinicians and nutrition experts help you improve and maintain your health and quality of life.

Cardiac rehabilitation has significant benefits

Doctors and patients agree that cardiac rehab is a valuable tool and resource. In general, patients who participate feel better and live longer. Cardiac rehabilitation has been shown to:
  • Decrease mortality rates from all causes by up to 45%
  • Decrease risk of future heart attacks by 25%
  • Decrease the number of future emergency department visits
  • Decrease the overall cost of healthcare
  • Contribute to significant improvement in quality of life due to the positive effect on physical and mental health


Success from physical, psychological and social change

The goal of cardiac rehabilitation is to significantly decrease or eliminate the risk factors that cause a progression of coronary artery disease. We start with a thorough evaluation, then create a plan of monitored exercise, lifestyle education and emotional support designed just for you. 
  • Exercise improves cardiovascular fitness and muscle strength through low-impact activities and resistance training
  • Lifestyle education empowers you to break bad habits, like smoking and overeating, and adopt healthy habits, like exercise and proper nutrition
  • Emotional support helps you manage stress and learn to cope with heart disease
By addressing these physical, psychological and social aspects, we help people focus on creating healthy habits to last a lifetime.

What to Expect


Our 4-step process

Our providers emphasize a prompt, seamless transition from an incident or hospitalization to rehabilitation. Patients who are hospitalized for a cardiac-related illness will meet with a cardiac rehabilitation educator while in the hospital to be introduced to the program.

Following release from the hospital, patients will begin a regular program of monitored exercise and lifestyle education as soon as medically appropriate as determined by their physician.

To help patients achieve their goals, we follow a four-step process:
  1. Initial and ongoing assessment of the patient to personalize a care plan
  2. Continuous communication with the referring physician
  3. Monitored exercise sessions in a safe and secure environment
  4. Education and counseling about lifestyle changes involving diet, smoking cessation, weight loss, depression, stress management, exercise and other topics

  • Telemetry-based cardiac monitoring
  • Blood glucose monitoring for diabetic patients
