The Cardiac Rehabilitation Home Program provides the structural framework for patient access to cardiac recovery in the home setting. Using an interdisciplinary team approach, the program standardizes patient education, establishes a personalized activity program, and provides psychosocial support to the patient and family during the recovery process. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Home Program reduces the cost of delivering healthcare to the cardiac population while improving customer satisfaction, strategically positioning home health agencies for managed care contracts.
