Preventive Exercise Program
Mount Carmel offers a medically supervised exercise program for those who have suffered a heart attack, recently had weight-loss surgery or have health conditions such as heart disease, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, chronic asthma or emphysema. This program is also ideal for anyone who would like to start an exercise program and prefers the reassurance of medical supervision. Through risk assessment, exercise and ongoing evaluation, the Preventive Exercise Program (PEP) helps improve fitness, manage health conditions and prevent others from occurring.
