Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program

Evergreen's Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program will help patients enhance their quality of life by:

• improving their ability to perform routine daily tasks, such as walking, showering, housework and leaving the house to run errands
• making patients aware of triggers that make their disease worse
• showing patients how to deal with the occurrence of symptoms such as wheezing and shortness of breath
• explaining proper use of their medications
• planning the most effective diet
• understanding when to call the doctor

Patients attend two sessions each week, each of which includes:

• supervised exercise
• counseling to help with dietary changes, smoking cessation and for emotional support
• educational sessions on topics such as nutrition, breathing techniques, smoking cessation, use of medication and inhalers
