Getting Healthy Again

Every year, more men and women in the United States die of heart disease than all forms of cancer combined. But even if you’ve suffered a heart attack or other heart problem, there is good news: Some simple lifestyle changes can greatly reduce the risk of recurrence.

Phases 2 and 3 of Heart Care

To develop these new, healthy habits, it’s important that each cardiac patient continue a rehabilitation program. Phase 2 and Phase 3 of cardiac rehab take place on an outpatient basis at John C. Lincoln’s Health Management Services department, on the North Mountain campus.

During these phases, patients continue to regain strength and progress in their exercise programs. They also learn important information about nutrition and how to eat to keep their hearts healthy.
