LMH plans open house to dedicate unit

Lawrence Memorial Hospital and the LMH Endowment Assn. will sponsor a community open house and dedication from 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to celebrate the newly expanded Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Unit.

The renovation and expansion of the unit was made possible in part by a grant from the William T. Kemper Foundation, Commerce Bank Trustee.

The Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Unit is designed to return patients to an optimal level of health and activity following heart attacks, heart surgeries and angioplasties.

It is also used by patients who are diagnosed with unstable angina or coronary artery disease.
