As you plan for your recovery from heart surgery or hospitalization:

Is someone available to help you at home 24/7 as you heal?
Will you be capable of daily activities such as dressing, cooking and bathing on your own?
Will you be strong enough to return to your regular lifestyle right away?
Will you be able to maintain a specific exercise program at home?

If there’s any concern about the mobility and strength required to accomplish these tasks post-surgery or post-hospitalization, cardiac rehab is the right choice as you recover.
