CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital-Sulphur Springs News

 

 CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital – Sulphur Springs has ONE mission: To Extend the Healing Ministry of Jesus Christ.

November is both Lung Cancer and COPD Awareness Month

Are you noticing a theme? Our lungs are vital! As always, you need to get your annual physical from your Primary Care provider, which is of utmost importance to you. If your provider decides you need further diagnostics, they can order testing. We have a Pulmonologist in Sulphur Springs several times a month. If you do not have a Primary Care provider, CHRISTUS Trinity Clinic has providers taking new patients at 903.885.3181. For a referral to the Pulmonologist, call CHRISTUS Trinity Clinic and request their Sulphur Springs clinic.  

Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Do you need help managing your lung condition? Pulmonary rehabilitation can help. Pulmonary rehab is a program that can help you learn how to breathe easier and improve your quality of life. You can benefit from pulmonary rehab if you have the following:

  • Emphysema
  • Asthma
  • Chronic bronchitis
  • Bronchiectasis
  • Cystic Fibrosis
  • A Neuromuscular disease (such as Multiple Sclerosis or Parkinson’s Disease)
  • Lung Cancer
  • History of smoking
  • Post lung surgery
  • Post-COVID shortness of breath 

Pulmonary rehab can make a difference. It is a safe, savvy way to help you: decrease symptoms like shortness of breath, coughing, and wheezing. It can help you breathe better, get stronger, decrease stress, and reduce the risks of future lung problems and related hospital admissions. We designed pulmonary rehabilitation to help increase strength, endurance, and overall health through exercise, education, diet, and support while decreasing patients’ shortness of breath. Ask your physician for a referral to CHRISTUS Mother Frances – Sulphur Springs’ Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program 903.439.4141.
