Out-Patient Program
All out-patient programs require a physician's referral
Cardiovascular Chronic Disease Prevention and Management Program
Participating in a cardiovascular rehabilitation program is integral to preventing disease progression and recurrence of vascular events. This 6 month program is designed for those who have experienced vascular diseases like cardiac events, TIA, stroke with minimal deficits, peripheral artery disease and high risk diabetics. We will help participants learn to enhance and maintain their health and improve their quality of life by assisting them to make and maintain health behavior changes. All participants complete an exercise stress test at the start and completion of service. A comprehensive individualized program of exercise and education is provided. Participation in once weekly 90 minute sessions as well as home exercise is expected. This program is fully supported by a highly skilled inter-professional team.
