Why cardiac rehab matters
Live longer, feel better
- Rehab helps you recover safely after a heart attack, vascular procedure, surgery, or lung issue. It’s proven to lower your risk of future problems and help you live longer.
Strength for your body and mind
- You’ll build physical strength, reduce your chances of going back to the hospital, and get support for your emotional well-being.
Support that keeps you going
- When your care team recommends rehab and stays involved, you’re more likely to stick with it—and see real results.
What to expect
Our program usually lasts 8 to 12 weeks, but it may vary based on your condition and insurance. You’ll get:
- A personalized exercise plan
- Education on heart and lung health
- Support to manage stress and build healthy habits
When your program ends, we’ll help you keep moving forward with tools to stay active and well.
Why choose cancer rehab?
- It’s free for patients. Thanks to support from the Intermountain Foundation, this program is offered at no cost to you.
- Personalized for every step. Whether you’re in treatment or recovery, we’ll adjust your care plan to help you stay strong and build endurance.
- Feel better every day. With a focus on movement, education, and healthy habits, cancer rehab helps you feel stronger and more energized in your daily life.
- A clear path forward. The program includes 24 visits, fully covered by the Intermountain Foundation, so you can focus on healing—not the cost.
