Oswego Health: Lakeside Heart Center (USA)

Oswego Health: Lakeside Heart Center (USA)"Oswego Health's Lakeside Heart Center, New York, provides cardiac rehabilitation to community members that have recently experienced a cardiac event. The program has two primary goals. The first is to help people physically and emotionally recover from their cardiac event. The second goal is to help prevent other heart problems from occurring in the future. These two goals are met through individual education sessions, as well as structured exercise classes that are held three times per week. We offer medically supervised one-hour adult fitness classes on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 8am. - 5pm. There are also one-hour phase two monitored classes, which are held Tuesdays and Thursdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. A third phase two class opportunity for participants is offered each week either Mondays or Fridays between 2 and 5 p.m. The Heart Center's staff consists of two registered nurses. A physician is present during all monitored classes for any questions or should an emergency arise. In addition to exercise, the program also offers guidance with issues of diet, high blood pressure, diabetes, weight management, high cholesterol and other health issues"
