Gordon Lessing, 90, who regularly walks to stay healthy, tries out
a new gym at Legacy Emanuel Hospital built specifically to help
heart and pulmonary patients.
New Gym for Heart Patients
Legacy Emanuel has opened
a new cardiac and pulmonary
rehabilitation program, which in-
cludes a 4,200-square-foot gym,
to help heart and pulmonary pa-
tients on their road to recovery.
With this new addition, Legacy
Health will now have cardiac
and pulmonary rehabilitation
programs at all six of its medical
center campuses.
The program offers a state-of-
the-art fitness gym with equip-
ment such as treadmills, elliptical
cycles, hand weights and other
fitness tools. Patients get a com-
pletely individualized and close-
ly monitored outpatient treatment
plan that includes instruction on
physical activity, nutrition, stress
management and classes to help
them change their lifestyle and
kick habits, like smoking. They
are overseen by a team of phy-
sicians, exercise physiologists,
nutritionists, nurses, behavioral
therapists and physical and oc-
cupational therapists who serve
in the field of cardiac and pulmo-
nary rehabilitation.
