CARDIAC & PULMONARY
REHABILITATION

Cardiac Rehabilitation is a planned program of health education, counseling, and training to help people with heart conditions enjoy better health.

Our Cardiac Rehab department will help you to:

  Regain strength to return to your usual activities
  Develop a healthy diet
  Excercise regularly
  Help manage stress and your emotions

Cardiac Rehab is covered through most insurance companies and Medicare, depending upon the specific diagnosis. The length of the program varies for each individual. After a patient has graduated from the Cardiac Rehab program, they are able to continue they’re rehabilitation by participating in our Cardiac Maintenance program. This program costs $4 a session or $100 for the entire year.

For more information about Cardiac Rehabiliation, please call (402) 685-5601.

Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Pulmonary rehabilitation takes place on an individual basis. Patients suffering from chronic lung problems work to expand their lung capacity to its fullest potential so they can achieve an optimal lifestyle. This often involves low-impact aerobic exercise sessions and counseling.

A physician’s referral is necessary for this program. Please contact Mary Fran Bacon, RN or Sara Cameron, RN at (402) 685-5601 for additional information
