After Heart Surgery: Renting Mobility Equipment for Recovery

Recovery from heart surgery is gradual, with walking encouraged but distances built up slowly. For outings beyond what your care team recommends, equipment lets you get out without overdoing it.

Common rentals

• transport chair for appointments and outings.
• rollator walker for walks with rest breaks.

Follow the plan

Your cardiac rehab team will give you limits. Equipment helps you stay within them.

Lifting limits

After heart surgery, patients are often told not to lift, push or pull heavy things for a while. That means the patient should not be folding a chair or pushing their own wheelchair. Make sure a family member is ready to do the lifting, and choose a light transport chair to make that easier.

Cardiac rehab trips

Rehab sessions mean regular trips to a clinic. Having a chair in the car makes parking lots and long hallways less daunting on low energy days.

At home

A rollator walker gives a seat when you need a breather on walks around the house or yard. Always follow your rehab team's guidance on walking distances.
