How Cardiac Rehab Works
Our experienced cardiac rehabilitation providers are committed to helping you return to the highest level of heart health, performance and wellbeing. We use a gradual, progressive and monitored exercise program in addition to risk-reduction education and nutrition counseling––all in the name of a healthy heart.
Cardiac rehab assists those who may have had:

Cardiac rehab is offered at all three Inspira hospital locations in South Jersey. Patients who graduate from cardiac rehab will have the opportunity to attend a 60-day Physician Referred Exercise Program (PREP) to further assist with the transition back to an active lifestyle through Inspira Fitness Connection.
