Cardiac Health Services
About Your Cardiac Health Services
 When
diagnosed with a form of heart disease, patients and their
families may feel frightened. There is sometimes a sense of
personal loss, as patients feel they are no longer the people
they thought they were. Often, lifestyle adjustments may need
to be made for a successful outcome to occur.
The goal at Cardiac Health Services is to restore patients
to as normal a life as possible. And this comes about through
our family-centered approach, which involves the patient,
his or her physician, the family, and support staff. Effective
heart care is this kind of team effort in which progressive
medical treatment is combined with a caring and compassionate
staff.
Established in 1971, Cardiac Health Services was the first
of its kind in southwest Michigan to provide rehabilitation
services to heart patients, and currently offers state-of-the-art
diagnostic equipment and expanded rehabilitation services.
Specific medical treatment and educational programs are designed
to meet the particular physical and emotional needs of each
individual. But it's the one-to-one relationship between staff
and patient that makes Cardiac Health Services unique.
Cardiac Health Services's staff comprises cardiologists, intensivists,
internists, pulmonologists, specially trained nurses, exercise
physiologists and technologists, all of whom participate by
offering their care and medical expertise.
