Cardiac Rehabilitation

Many heart events, such as elective cardiac catheterization with stent placement, myocardial infarctions and open-heart surgeries (bypass and valve replacement) require follow-up care through cardiac rehabilitation.

We work with patients to regain their health and vitality after a heart event through a personalized exercise program and education on nutrition, medications and improved lifestyle. Patients no longer have to travel to other facilities for this important level of care in their recovery, thanks to the Phase II services offered right here at MercyOne Dyersville.

Through Phase II, patients gradually and safely increase their level of activity through an exercise program developed by the cardiac team. In addition, education sessions allow the patient to:

  • Begin the rebuilding process slowly
  • Understand the heart disease process
  • Learn to recognize risk factors
  • Modify diet
  • Learn how to shop for healthful, low-fat, low-sodium foods
  • Meet food requirements when dining in a restaurant
  • Reduce stress
  • Learn how their medication works

Family members are invited to the education sessions so they can better understand the recovery process and help patients meet their goals.

Most insurance companies will pay for a portion or all of the cost of this program.

For information, call 563-875-2923.

What you eat makes a difference in your health and wellness. Nutritionists at MercyOne Dyersville can help you make good nutritional choices that truly fit your goals and needs. Meet one-on-one with a registered dietitian to review your diet history, assess your personal nutrition needs and discover a better way of eating and living.

  • Cancer
  • High cholesterol

  • Kidney disease

Making an appointment:

A physician's referral is needed to schedule an appointment with a dietitian. Have your physician fax a referral to 563-875-2950. For more information on scheduling an appointment, please call 563-875-2925. Please bring the following items to your appointment:

  • A written record of your food intake for two to three days prior to your appointment. This food journal will help the dietitian develop a personalized plan for you.
  • A list of any medications, vitamins and supplements that you are taking.
  • If you have diabetes and check your blood sugar regularly at home, please bring your logbook.

Insurance Coverage:

Each insurance provider has its own policy regarding payment for nutritional counseling. Please contact your provider to see if nutrition services are covered.


Radiology

Imaging tests help in the diagnosis and treatment of your symptoms or injury, and your physician may order an imaging test as part of your care. MercyOne Dyersville offers general radiology, mammography and ultrasound. If your physician feels another test is necessary, we will refer you to MercyOne Dubuque where they also offer MRI, CT scan (CAT scan), PET-CT and nuclear medicine.

Caring, board-certified radiology technologists are on hand 24 hours daily to get high-quality films and keep you as comfortable as possible during your exam. All exams are interpreted by our board-certified radiologists. Your physician who ordered the test will receive the radiologist's report and will share the results with you.

Mammography

Digital mammography is now available at MercyOne Dyersville, and patients no longer need to travel out of town for this service. Digital mammography uses computer technology instead of film and allows the physician to electronically enhance and magnify the images, and to adjust the contrast to better examine any suspicious areas. From the patient's perspective, the procedure for a digital mammogram is the same as for a conventional film mammogram. However, since the images are available almost immediately and no film development time is necessary, the examination time for the patient is less. Digital mammography is the most effective tool for early detection of breast cancer.

Ultrasound

Ultrasound, also called sonogram or sonography, is an examination that uses high frequency sound waves to produce images of organs and vessels within the body. Ultrasound differs from most other imaging modalities in that it does not use any type of radiation or radioactive material.

For information, call 563-875-2952.
