Walking Together
for Hearts

HEART WALK BRINGS AWARENESS TO THE COMMUNITY

Dorsey Dye and Miles Dunscombe take care of
their hearts through cardiac rehab at the hospitals of Community Healthcare System. They
joined teams from across the system, including the cardiac rehab departments from Community Hospital and
St. Catherine Hospital and the cardiopulmonary care
department from St. Mary Medical Center to participate in the American Heart Association Heart Walk last
September in Lake and Porter counties.
"I found cardiac rehab a good way to exercise and meet
people who had been through a similar experience,"
Dunscombe says. "The neat thing about the walk is that
it comes around in the fall and you can see if you have

For Dye, cardiac rehab increased
his activity levels. "My body is much
stronger. Some of my nurses-Leticia,
Kathryn, Katie, Mike, Cameron, Joy
and Darlene-and I talked about
forming a team. I set a goal for
myself that if I could pass the last rehab (test), I would
go to the walk. They're a good bunch of people who
know what they are doing, have positive attitudes and
offer encouragement."
Cardiac rehab is a complete lifestyle change and an
ongoing commitment, says Lori Turco, RN, supervisor,
Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation, St. Mary Medical Center.
"You can't just do it for 12 weeks and then say, 'I'm done.'
It is the camaraderie that keeps them motivated. They are
their own cheerleaders for each other as well as the staff
who keep them coming back." *

Dorsey Dye, center, says cardiac rehab has helped him increase his
activity levels and get stronger.
