The emergency room has the Chest Pain Emergency Center providing rapid evaluation of individuals with chest pain and heart attack symptoms. Our outpatient cardiac rehabilitation program is designed to improve the health of those with heart disease. The heart can be rehabilitated through monitored exercise therapy, patient education, psychological support, and modification of risk factors contributing to heart disease. Our Center for Exercise also provides a cardiac maintenance program to help patients maintain a more heart-healthy lifestyle. We also offer home health services for open-heart surgery patients.
Nurses are available to make follow-up visits in the home.
They work closely with the cardiac surgeons and hospital staff in providing this service. Regional Heart Center also provides programs to educate our community about heart disease. Other ongoing community health education programs include Women s Health Forum and Lunch With your Doctor. We also recognize the emotional impact heart disease has on our patients and families.
