Cardiac Rehabilitation - Topic Overview

(continued)

continued...

Starting cardiac rehab after a heart attack can lower your chance of dying from heart disease and can help you stay out of the hospital. It may reduce your need for medicine.

Cardiac rehab may also help you to:

Have better overall health.
Lose weight or keep weight off.
Feel less depressed and more hopeful.
Have more energy and feel better about yourself.

Changing old habits is hard. But in cardiac rehab, you get the support of experts who can help you make new healthy habits. And meeting other people who are in cardiac rehab can help you know that you're not alone.
