About Us
Decatur Morgan Hospital offers Cardiac Rehab, a physician-ordered phase II monitored program to provide strengthening and conditioning to patients who have undergone cardiac procedures, have stable angina, or have suffered a cardiac event. Cardiac Rehab may also be ordered for patients with congestive heart failure (CHF) who meet qualifications, to improve cardiac health and prevent further complications that require hospitalization. Education is provided in exercise, dietary and nutritional recommendations, monitoring symptoms, and vital signs, smoking cessation, and encouraging patients in creating a new lifestyle for themselves.
Our Cardiac Rehab is staffed by specially-trained registered nurses, with input from our physical therapists, exercise specialists, nutritionists, and psychologists/counselors. The medical director is a cardiac specialist. Cardiac Rehab is by appointment only and provided with a physician’s prescription.
