Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

Participants must also be eligible for referral to a cardiac rehabilitation program; this will be determined by the cardiologist and cardiology nurse caring for that patient. Patients will be aged 18 years and over.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients who are clinically unstable will also be excluded (eligibility to participate will be determined by the attending cardiology nurse using a check list).
  • Non\-English speaking patients are unable to be included as the education resource and questionnaires are written in the English language only.
