At-Home Cardiac Rehabilitation
At-Home Cardiac Rehab gives you the opportunity to get supervised exercise, health education and one-on-one counseling that come with a traditional comprehensive rehabilitation program from the comfort of your own home. UNC Health has partnered with Recora to provide this at-home option for patients recovering from heart surgery or heart disease.
Participating patients will receive a Cardiac Recovery Kit that includes a wearable health device that relays information about your activity and safety to live clinicians who are monitoring your progress as you work out.
