Mercy Medical Center Redding’s pulmonary rehabilitation program helps improve the quality of life for people with chronic conditions such as emphysema, chronic bronchitis, asthma, and pulmonary fibrosis. Our program is also tailored toward patients who require conditioning for surgery, pre- and post-lung transplant and anyone recovering from an acute episode.
Enrollment in the program is open to adults who are referred by their doctor. Participants will remain under the care of their referring doctor throughout pulmonary rehabilitation, as the goal of the program is to complement care provided by your doctor, not replace it. Pulmonary rehabilitation is covered by most health plans and Medicare.
Each program participant receives an initial evaluation by our respiratory therapist. All exercise is closely monitored. At the end of the program, many participants are able to increase their exercise tolerance and are encouraged to continue an exercise program at home.
Each session runs for eight weeks. Classes are scheduled Tuesdays and Thursdays and last approximately 2.5 hours. Participating patients will have a choice of a 9 a.m. or 1 p.m. class time.
