COPD
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a disease state characterized by airflow limitation that is not fully reversible.

Data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicate that at least 10.5 million Americans have COPD.  Other data suggest that as many as 14 million more Americans may have the symptoms of COPD but have not yet been diagnosed.

Home Healthcare Partner’s COPD Initiative is a program coordinated by your physicians and registered nurses who specialize in helping people live quality lives through outpatient management of their lung disease.

How the Program Works
A specially trained nurse will discuss your condition with you and the type of care and services you will need. You may be enrolled in our telemonitoring program that connects you by phone with your nurse on a regular basis. We help you monitor your condition, answer any questions or concerns you may have and give you information about your condition.

Our goal is to help the patient become more knowledgeable about their disease, promote self-management, and improve the patient’s quality of life.
