Salt Lake City-based Intermountain Health has opened a new cardiac rehab clinic at the health system's Riverton (Utah) Hospital.
"This state-of-the-art facility will bring cutting-edge and much-needed cardiopulmonary rehabilitation closer to home for our patients in the southwest valley of Salt Lake City," the hospital said in a July 10 Facebook post.
"Cardiac rehab offers a completely monitored and safe environment during exercise that allows for patients to gain strength, confidence, and knowledge of their full potential as part of their recovery journey," Breno Rodrigues, manager of cardiovascular and pulmonary rehabilitation for Intermountain, said in a July 25 report from ABC affiliate KTVX.
