Cardiac Rehab program graduates 168 patients
Beebe Medical Center’s Cardiac Rehabilitation program honored 168 patients at the recent annual picnic. Each honoree graduated from the program over the last year. Thirty-four volunteers also were recognized for the work they do to help the cardiac patients.
The Cardiac Rehabilitation program was established in 1982 and is certified through the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation. It offers a clinically supervised exercise program for people who have had recent cardiac events. It also offers educational opportunities for heart-healthy nutrition, stress reduction, individual risk factor identification, and lifestyle changes.
The program’s goals include improvement in each patient’s quality of life and a decrease in his or her risk of a subsequent cardiac event. For further information on the Cardiac Rehabilitation Department at Beebe, call 302-645-3514. A physician referral is required.
