If you were unable to attend our Vendor Symposium panel discussion at the AACVPR Annual Meeting, you can now view the session on-demand! Watch the video below to hear directly from three current Pritikin providers who shared their perspectives on the value Pritikin ICR can bring to the patient experience, plus the opportunity it offers for a strong, sustainable program.
This year's interactive panel discussion featured a diverse group of Pritikin providers:
- Jarred Newmyer, Manager of Cardiac Rehabilitation, Northeast Georgia Medical Center, which has multiple locations
- Erica Lax, lead Exercise Physiologist at Prime Heart and Vascular, located in Plano, Texas
- Jon Dalton, Director of Cardiopulmonary Rehab for the Covenant Health System in East Tennessee
Moderated by Senior Advisor to the Chairman and former Pritikin ICR President, Terry Rogers, each panelist first offered background information on their facility. From there, they addressed audience questions covering topics which are often top-of-mind for cardiac rehab departments, including:
- What it takes to get started, such as space, staffing, and operational considerations.
- Key components of the patient education curriculum and how they are facilitated.
- Layering in virtual delivery components to reach even more eligible patients.
