It is a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary program aimed at breathing and endurance training, as well as lifestyle changes. Pulmonary Rehabilitation can help reduce symptoms, increase activity level and improve overall quality of life for persons with COPD and other respiratory illnesses. It can also reduce hospital readmission rates and improve overall health status.
