afib won’t quit? is he okay?

My dad (55M) works out very consistently, walks everyday, and eats healthfully. Recently, he was diagnosed with afib and is in the hospital because they don’t know how long he has been in afib.
His HR has consistently been in the 160s.
According to google, it is very treatable with high percentage of improvement, BUT we all know it’s wrong to rely on google. I am just in need of some reassurance that he can still have a long and healthy life.
Thanks in advance for your expertise!
