Humans of St. Charles - Amy K.

“One of my most important goals is comfort. The whole idea of this program is to educate people and help them modify the risk factors that got them into cardiac rehab in the first place. So how do we get them past that fear of starting over and feeling confident to go out and resume (living)? It’s about giving people good information about how to move forward, and this is one way we do that. It communicates comfort to patients in a somewhat stressful situation.”

- Amy, exercise specialist at St. Charles Bend, who maintains the new chalkboard wall near the entrance to Cardiopulmonary Rehab. Each week, Amy posts announcements, upcoming events, tips, suggested meals, an exercise of the week and more for patients’ perusal.
