Telehealth Cardiac Rehab

Welcome to the Home Based Cardiac Rehabilitation Program

The Home Based Cardiac Rehabilitation (HBCR) program is a tele-health based program that can be done in your own home or at a fitness center.  The program consists of supervised exercise, lifestyle and behavior modification that is tailored to each individual.  The HBCR program uses app based technology to provide supervision and education.  Patients also have access to all of the educational materials used in the traditional cardiac rehabilitation program.  As well as, tele-health video conferencing with the Cardiac Rehabilitation Registered Dietitian, Pharmacist, and Pyschiatrist.  Patient eligibility requirements may apply, call (415) 514-9269 for more information.

Cardiac Rehabilitation -- Home and Telehealth Options

We know that cardiac rehab programs are limited.  Locating and/or waiting to start cardiac rehab can be challenging.  There are several options for cardiac rehabilitation education while patients wait.  Also, several external telehealth cardiac rehab programs are now available.  These programs are safe and effective, and use remote monitoring and telehealth coaching to support exercise progression, exploration of healthy habits, and overall well-being.  The companies that run these programs are not part of UCSF.
