Phase I – Inpatient: A progressive, in-hospital exercise and education program.

Phase II – Outpatient: This phase builds upon the program conditioning achieved in Phase I. Exercise sessions are held three times a week under the supervision of trained cardiac rehab staff with continuous monitoring using state-of-the-art equipment. In addition to the exercise sessions, our Heart Smart Lecture Series includes weekly classes focused on the prevention of heart disease.

Phase III – Maintenance: After completion of Phases I and II, individuals can continue their exercise programs at Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital under the supervision of the cardiac rehabilitation staff.
