BCMH: Shout out to Patty Lurten Registered Respiratory Therapist

BCMH: Shout out to Patty Lurten Registered Respiratory Therapist for National Pulmonary Rehabilitation Week! PR is for patients who experience lung problems such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and other chronic respiratory diseases or conditions, such as “long Covid”. 

Patty helps her patients throughout the whole program, which includes exercise, education and activities based on their specific needs and a qualifying diagnosis. 

Although pulmonary rehabilitation can’t cure lung disease, it can be of great benefit and patients notice improved breathing effort, improved strength, and better ability to cope. 

We appreciate Patty and the ability to provide this needed rehab program for our community!
