Cardiac & Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Tippah County Hospital's Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation program is designed to help improve a patient's quality of life.  Our staff will work with you, your family, and the provider to establish an individualized care plan to include exercise, nutrition, stress, management, and to help you transition back to your daily life more quickly.

Cardiac Rehabilitation doesn’t change your past, but it can help you improve your heart’s future. Cardiac rehab is a medically supervised program designed to improve your cardiovascular health if you have experienced heart attack, heart failure, angioplasty or heart surgery.

Pulmonary Rehabilitation is a program of exercise, education, and support to help patients learn to breathe and function at the highest level possible.
