Getting Better and

Right Kind of Exercise

You’ll never feel like a number with AdventHealth Redmond rehab care. We provide individualized testing, evaluation and specialized rehab plans based on your unique needs. But we do more than focus on specific exercises; we focus on you. We sincerely care about your healing and recovery and want to ensure you get back to the people, experiences and moments that matter most.

Cardiac Rehabilitation: Our cardiac rehab program is designed to help improve your physical, mental and spiritual health after a heart attack, open-heart surgery or valve replacement.

Your rehab will begin immediately — right at your hospital bedside — with a group of caring nurses and exercise physiologists who are trained to help you get moving again.

When you’re ready to leave the hospital and return home, we’ll still be here to help you heal. You’ll be scheduled for an orientation that will introduce you to Phase II (or our outpatient program). Typically, people will participate in the program for 12 weeks. During this time, you will:

Build strength and endurance

Learn to manage your heart rate and blood pressure

Learn how you'll get back to daily activities

AdventHealth Redmond Rehabilitation Services Hosts Inaugural Kickball Game for Parkinson’s Patients

On Thursday, Sept. 22, thirty-two Parkinson’s patients walked onto the Rome Braves Miracle Field to play kickball. This event, entitled Kick Back at Parkinson’s, was dreamt up by AdventHealth Redmond director of rehabilitation John Crowley and AdventHealth Sports Med and Rehab Parkinson’s program coordinator Marjorie Kinder, to celebrate patients’ tenacity and persistence in the Parkinson’s rehabilitation program for National Rehabilitation Awareness Week.

Rehabilitation professionals including physical therapists, occupational therapists, physical therapy assistants, occupational therapy assistants, speech language pathologists, and office staff supported each player, providing modifications as needed to allow them to kick then race to first base. In the outfield, the Chargers stood ready for action. The game progressed as kickers made it to the bases, running, walking or riding, all smiling from ear to ear. The crowd roared while the DJ played a power anthem preselected by each player as they approached the plate for their turn to kick.

With a final score of Chargers 24 to Rattlers 17, the players and their families packed up, exhausted but happy, and went home with a renewed sense of motivation to train for next year’s game.
