Copy of Better Breathers Club - New Richmond

• Better Breathers Clubs are welcoming support groups offered at no charge to people with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) or other chronic lung diseases. The club brings people together to learn how to manage their condition and improve their quality of life.

Meetings help you:

• Better manage your condition
• Share experiences, challenges and skills with others
• Learn about resources and activities in your community
• Become more active

Better Breathers Club meets the third Monday of each month and features educational presentations on a wide range of relevant topics, including: how chronic lung diseases affect the lungs; breathing techniques; exercise; talking with your physician; medications and other treatment options; medical tests; supplemental oxygen; home health care; lung transplants; air pollution; caregiver support.

If you feel alone and isolated, this support group can help. It feels good to talk with others who understand, which has a positive impact on your health.

Appropriate for community members with COPD, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, lung cancer.

Family members, friends and support persons are welcome. Confidentiality is honored. There is no fee.

Meets on the third Monday each month, at 1 pm at the White House, Westfields Hospital.
