Pulmonary Care

Breathing is the rhythmic movement of air into and out of the lungs.

We don’t think about how effortless the act of breathing is—until it changes. People with chronic lung disease, cancer, neuromuscular disease, or other conditions can experience breathing difficulties that interfere with daily living.

Breathlessness or shortness of breath may limit your ability to walk down the street or across a room. It may be difficult to lift your grandchild or a bag of groceries. These changes can be stressful and frightening. Hospice of the Valley’s innovative Pulmonary Resource Program provides care, support, and education to palliative care and hospice patients. Our team works with you, your family caregivers, physicians, healthcare team, palliative care, and hospice team to develop an individualized plan of care based on your preferences and goals.
