Patient education during cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation improves patient outcomes yet attendance at ‘formal’ education classes is historically poor. New cardiac and pulmonary rehab delivery models include hybrid center- and ‘home-based’ or only ‘home-based’ rehabilitation which presents challenges for these traditional ‘classroom’ based educational models. Innovative strategies leveraging technology to develop new delivery models for patient education are needed to meet the demand of this evolving healthcare landscape. In this break-out session we will discuss how to increase patient engagement with required cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation patient education through the use of innovative strategies leveraging technology as a new delivery model. In cardiac rehabilitation, we will describe how we successfully designed, implemented, disseminated and evaluated the feasibility of an innovative ready-to-scale electronic messaging educational program. The program utilizes patient action items, circaseptan rhythms, strategic collaborations and infrastructural design. In pulmonary rehabilitation, we will describe how we are implementing and utilizing an electronic program to create and disseminate patient-centered education and evaluate patient adherence to home exercise, self – care strategies and symptom management. This session will help attendees improve the delivery of key education to patients not just in cardiac or pulmonary rehabilitation but for any patient who would benefit from receiving education with easy-to-implement modifiable behaviors.
