Infos

This easy-to-use manual provides a practical framework for a
multi-disciplinary team to deliver a successful cardiac
rehabilitation programme.

* Despite evidence that cardiac rehabilitation programmes reduce
risk, there is no standard for hospital-based multidisciplinary
programmes - which are thus complex and costly to design and
implement

* Based on the cardiac rehabilitation work that has been carried
out at in Gloucestershire over the past fifteen years, developing
and constantly evaluating the evidence base for the programme

* Includes client handouts such as food and exercise diaries
