Outpatient Cardiac Rehab After you leave the hospital, an outpatient program is available. The Outpatient Cardiac Rehabilitation program can help you recover from heart surgery after your breastbone is healed. You will need to be seen and cleared by your cardiologist before starting outpatient cardiac rehab. Our outpatient program focuses on education and exercise to help reduce risk factors. Our exercise physiologists, nurses, and other healthcare professionals design a cardiac program to meet each patient’s unique needs. You will be given personalized attention and the support you need to get you back to your normal daily routine. The program combines medically supervised exercise and in-depth educational sessions. Using state-of-the-art monitoring and monitoring equipment, the exercise program introduces you to safe exercises, including weight training. The education sessions address diet, exercise, heart medications, and stress management.
