There are many facets
to our Pulmonary Medicine Department, highlighting how crucial
lung function is for people of all ages. At Saint Mary's, we're
doing everything we can to meet the complicated medical and
emotional needs caused by emphysema, asthma, chronic bronchitis
and other lung diseases. Our services range from prevention
and education, to inpatient and outpatient care, to support
groups where people can share their experiences and feelings
with others. We even conduct screenings for job-related lung
problems. Through our outreach programs, we go directly into
the community and provide services such as respiratory therapy in nursing
homes. And our state-of-the-art rehab clinic, combined with
the Cardiology Department, can help people return to the
normal activities of daily living.
