Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation

Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation from Stockton Cardiology, by Recora

Expected Outcomes of Remote Cardiac Rehabilitation (RCR)

Cardiac rehabilitation can help many individuals achieve their recovery goals and avoid a repeat visit back to the hospital. Home-based cardiac rehabilitation has been shown to be safe and effective, allowing you to participate from the comfort of your own home when it works best for your schedule.

Throughout the program, you’ll receive educational materials, support group resources, and counseling regarding heart disease, diabetes, medications, nutrition and weight loss, stress management, mental health, risk factor identification, modification, and smoking cessation.

This comprehensive approach ensures that you’ll receive the knowledge, support, and tools you need to improve your heart health and overall well-being.

How it works

• • When you enroll in the program, you will be sent a Cardiac Recovery Kit with all you need to participate in your sessions.

• • Many patients join sessions using their tablet, smartphone, or computer with a web camera. If you don’t have access to a device, we will send you a loaner internet-enabled tablet so you can see your cardiac therapist face-to-face as they guide you step-by-step through your sessions.

• • Once you receive your Cardiac Recovery Kit, you will meet with one of Recora’s orientation exercise physiologists to discuss your health goals and clinical history. They will create a personalized treatment plan for you and will tailor it to your needs throughout your time in the program.

• • Based on your treatment plan and schedule, you will be matched with a cardiac therapist. You will meet with your care team two to three times a week for approximately 12-18 weeks. They will also keep in contact with your Stockton Cardiology care team to provide updates. You will be encouraged to participate in both individual and group sessions to provide the maximum health benefit.
