Heartbeats Public Talk on Exercise-based Heart Rehabilitation

Trent Lash from Heartbeats North Shore

Heartbeats is a charity and a not-for-profit, support and education organization for heart event survivors, their family and whanau. We have four support groups operating across Auckland and over 200 members

Over 4,000 heart patients are discharged from Auckland hospitals each year.
10,000 people die of heart disease every year in New Zealand (that's one every 55 minutes).
36% of all deaths in New Zealand each year are from heart disease and stroke - its the number one mortality rate, even more than cancer.


Exercise-based cardiac rehabilitation with psychological counselling support and advice on diet can reduce hospital readmission in the first year of a heart attack by almost 30%
