Strong Hearts is a medically supervised heart failure rehabilitation program designed to help patients improve their symptoms and enrich your quality of life.
A variation of cardiac rehab, the program is adapted to fit heart failure patients' specific needs and goals. The program includes a combination of exercise training with qualified cardiac rehab staff (nurses and exercise physiologists), heart failure nurses, clinical dietitians, all in collaboration with cardiologists and primary care physicians. Individualized education and counseling sessions are also included to address each patient's specific risk factors.
The program is offered in the Cardiac Rehab Department at Valparaiso Medical Center and a physician referral is required for all patients. for more information, call 219-263-4629.
