TAKE HEART PROGRAM
Take Heart is a Vancouver Island community based cardiac exercise program that partners Oceanside Physiotherapy & Work Conditioning Centre with the Vancouver Island Health Authority. The program’s mission is to support clients with cardiac disease, or at risk of cardiac disease, to self-manage their health. By working together, this community-medical based partnership provides appropriate standardized, integrated, comprehensive and safe exercise programs in a cost effective, client friendly format. Take Heart is a 12 week program that includes twice weekly supervised exercise sessions in a safe environment. Our staff will provide individual assessments, an individual exercise prescription, aerobic and strength training, and informal risk factor information. We will be encouraging you to do additional exercises on your own. To start you need a referral or approval by your family doctor or specialist to attend. At the end of the 12 week program we offer a maintenance program to help you to keep on with your healthy lifestyle.
