Cardiac Recovery

Your heart needed expert care. Your recovery needs it too.

Recovery Timeline

7-14 days post-procedure, with activity restrictions easing gradually.

What to Expect

  • Strict activity restrictions — no lifting over 5 pounds, limited walking distances in the first week.
  • Medication management with precise timing. Missing doses or mixing up schedules can set back recovery.
  • Regular monitoring appointments — blood pressure, ECG, and incision checks every few days.

Housing Needs

  • Elevator or ground floor access is non-negotiable. Stairs put dangerous strain on a recovering heart.
  • Close proximity to the hospital — cardiac patients need to be within minutes of emergency care, not across town.
  • A quiet, low-stress environment. Noise, chaos, and uncertainty are measurably bad for cardiac recovery.
