Cardiac Rehabilitation Fund
Your contributions support cardiac patients' access to transformative care extending beyond their hospitalization. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Fund assists Horizon Health's comprehensive Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program, a specialized initiative led by a team of dedicated healthcare professionals, including nurses, physiotherapists, dieticians, and pharmacists. This program equips patients with the tools to manage their heart disease by fostering positive lifestyle changes. With a yearly impact on hundreds of patients, it empowers them to resume their cherished activities with their loved ones.
Owing to its remarkable success and increasing demand, the program has expanded beyond the Saint John Regional Hospital, now operating a satellite location in Sussex. Additionally, care providers are actively exploring the opportunity of introducing a third location in the near future, underscoring the program's vital role in the community.
