About this service
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition that worsens over time, making it harder for the individual to breathe. Those over 40 years old, especially smokers or former smokers, and people exposed to dust and fine particles in workplaces like mines and sawmills, are at a higher risk of COPD. It is important to diagnose COPD early to start treatment and minimize lung damage. Smoking cessation is a beneficial step for smokers with this condition. Screening involves a few questions and a spirometry test, which is a simple breathing test. The COPD program educates diagnosed patients about the disease, treatment options, lifestyle changes, inhaler techniques, action plans, and smoking cessation treatment.
