How Our Respiratory Therapy Team Helps Seniors
As senior adults get older, they are more susceptible to developing respiratory conditions due to their weakened immune systems. Abbey Senior Health’s respiratory therapy program can help patients suffering from a range of cardiopulmonary system illnesses, such as…
- Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
- Lung cancer
- Heart failure
- Emphysema
- Influenza
- Pneumonia
- Interstitial lung disease
- Chronic bronchitis and asthma
- Pleural mesothelioma (a rare cancer caused by asbestos)
We teach patients the proper techniques to help manage their disease while also helping to prevent secondary issues that can arise, such as pneumonia or the flu. Our therapy team will develop a respiratory care plan based on a customized assessment. Each care plan caters to the unique needs of each patient.
Benefits of Respiratory Therapy for Seniors
Benefits of senior respiratory therapy include…
- Reduced rate of readmission back into the hospital (especially for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and pneumonia).
- Improved health and independence when a patient returns home.
- Decreased pulmonary mortality rates.
