Together with medical and surgical treatments, cardiac rehabilitation can help you feel better and live a healthier life. You can also benefit from cardiac rehabilitation if you are at risk of heart disease. Cardiac rehabilitation can make a difference. Almost everyone with heart problems can benefit from some kind of cardiac rehabili-tation. No one is too old or too young.
Women can benefit from cardiac rehabilitation as much as men.
When you have heart disease, breaking old habits and learning new ones can be dif-ficult. Wondering about your future health can be worrying too. The support of family and friends, as well as health care providers, can make a big difference to how well you adjust to these changes. Share this booklet with others so they will learn about cardiac rehabilitation and how they can help you. In many public hospitals trained interpreters are available.
