Cardiac rehabilitation
Our tailored program of physiotherapy, education and counselling
benefits people following heart surgery, heart attack,
angioplasty/stent or angina diagnosis. Cardiac Rehabilitation is
offered as a 6-week Outpatient program, covered by most private
health funds. Participants attend twice a week for sessions of
exercise and education, followed by morning tea. More information
is available in our Cardiac Rehabilitation
brochure.
Cardiac maintenance
This program allows people who have completed a heart failure
program to continue to exercise in the safe, supervised environment
of our Cardiac Gym. The 45 minute sessions of individualised
exercise are supervised by a physiotherapist. There is no cost
involved. St John of God Health Care provides this program as a
free community service. More information is available in our
Cardiac Conditioning
brochure.
