Having chronic lung disease can make even the simple activities of daily living a challenge. Yet, there is a way to address these difficulties. For people with debilitating lung issues, pulmonary rehabilitation can offer an improved quality of life. At the office of North Jersey Pulmonary Associates, our goal is to help patients preserve and protect their health while providing care that supports optimal respiratory wellness and function.
Who is a candidate for pulmonary rehabilitation?
Individuals with the following chronic respiratory disease and conditions may benefit from a medically supervised pulmonary rehabilitation program:
Pulmonary rehabilitation tailored to address individual needs
Of course, every person presents a unique history and set of needs. For this reason, there’s never a one-size-fits-all plan. A suitable and effective pulmonary rehabilitation program to rebuild strength, reduce symptoms, enhance function, and improve one’s quality of life requires an individualized approach to care. As skilled specialists, our pulmonologists make specific recommendations based on a person’s medical history, current medications and treatment, and thorough assessment of their lung function, activity level, diet, lifestyle, and psychological and social needs.
Working as a team to maximize the benefits
Our doctors then work with a team of therapists and healthcare providers to tailor a plan. An individualized plan for pulmonary rehabilitation typically includes health education, breathing techniques, exercise training, nutritional and dietary guidance, and counseling to support behavior and lifestyle modifications. The goal is to provide patients with the education and tools they require to maximize the benefits of pulmonary rehabilitation.
Providing dedicated care that supports wellness
At the office of North Jersey Pulmonary Associates, we provide advanced, compassionate care to help patients with respiratory issues breathe easier and enable them to participate in their daily routines to the fullest extent possible.
