Rotherham cardiac rehab service gave me back my confidence

"Rotherham cardiac rehab service gave me back my confidence"

About: Adult community services / Heart failure support services

(as the patient),

When I was treated for a blocked artery by stenting I lost all my confidence, I was afraid to do anything that may exert me even thought I had always had a very active lifestyle. Attending the cardiac rehab course gave me back that confidence and taught me better ways to exercise.

As part of my role, I support clinical services who undertake patient and public involvement on behalf of The Rotherham NHS Foundation Trust which helps us to develop or redesign our services with patients in mind, from the valuable feedback we are given.
