Answer to Question 1

Phase I of cardiac rehabilitation begins in the hospital. Phase II of cardiac rehabilitation is the transitional phase and centers around recovery at home with increasing activity. Phase II of cardiac rehabilitation occurs in an outpatient rehabilitation facility, and it focuses on supervised exercise, counseling, and education. Phase IV of cardiac rehabilitation is the maintenance phase and focuses on long-term changes.
