In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual delivery has emerged as a vital component of a care plan. AACVPR’s Virtual Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Module Series is a new educational offering that will guide professionals through evidence-based virtual delivery, components of delivery, regulatory considerations, real-world case studies and more. This resource will provide practical hands-on knowledge that can be immediately applied in patient care.
This new program is available free to AACVPR members, a valuable asset of AACVPR membership with thanks to support from Chanl Health and Phas3 Health.
Series Pricing: Free for AACVPR members; $375 for non-members
Continuing Education Credits: Credits will be awarded after the completion of Module 3, which will be released in April, 2021.
