"Phase III Cardiac Rehabilitation St. Columicilles Hospital in has been running for the last ten years. Phase III is a comprehensiveCardiac Rehabilitation programme offering our patients combined information sessions, risk factor management and monitored exercise programme 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Our patients are individuals who have suffered a heart attack or have had a cardiac intervention such as coronary stenting or cardiac surgery. We recognised the importance of continuing regular exercise in this patient group as a very important component of risk factor management and for some patients they enjoy exercising in a gym environment.

We worked with the dlr Leisure Services Loughlinstown the Cardiac Rehabilitation team in St. Columicilles Hospital, Dr Charles Mc Creery (Consultant Cardiologist) and the hospital management team and organised information sessions and BLS/AED training for current gym instructors. These sessions gave them an overview of Cardiac Rehabilitation and cardiac disease and exercise for the cardiac patient. Phase 4 exercise classes for patients who have completed phase 3 in St. Columicilles Hospital was commenced in April 2008.

To date this programme has met our aims of having patients participating in a supervised class run by qualified gym instructors who have met the requirements of the cardiologist,Cardiac Rehabilitation coordinator and hospital management. Without exception our patients have given very positive feedback on the phase 4 class they have attended in dlr Leisure Services Loughlinstown . They find it a useful motivator in helping them keep to the exercise guidelines they have received during Cardiac Rehabilitation.

There are 3 instructors who are running Phase 4 exercise classes in Loughlinstown gym; one instructor has also completed the British association of Cardiac Rehabilitationtraining course for phase 4."

My Grandson attended the camp for 3 weeks, he was very happy with everything especially the pool. He was afraid of the water and now he can swim a little it was a great achievement for him. He has been to a few camps through the summer and he says this was the best one. He learned to play different games. I would like to congratulate you and your choice of coaches they were great. He will be back

"The school year is drawing to a close and as always I asked my first class what their highlights of the year have been. Every child said how much they loved their swimming lessons with you. They all missed their Thursday morning swim so much when classes finished last month.
I spoke to the other staff members and each felt the same as I did, that it was a great opportunity for the school when we changed swimming pools to Meadowbrook. All the staff were so friendly and the children responded so well to their instruction.

The children and I wanted to thank you all on behalf of the school and we look forward to the lessons next year."


Carol Norton, Rathfarnham Educated Together, June 2010.

"I use your facilities in Meadowbrook and love going up to the classes. The team that you have up there are fantastic. I find that they are always in good form, very welcoming and go out of their way to make sure that I get the best service possible. I go to the chair aerobics class, circuit training and aqua aerobics The facilities are superb and are second to none. I look forward to the classes every week.

These days everyone seems very quick to complain and point out the negative, I would just like to take this time to say thank you to all the team at Meadowbrook. I would appreciate if you could pass on my thanks to your fantastic team. Many thanks."
