Virtual Hub for respiratory and heart failure support

We are working with the South West Virtual Hub to support people with COPD, Asthma or Heart problems.  We are hoping to support you to stay at home safer and longer, help you feel better and experience illness related to your condition less often by showing you breathing techniques and sharing with you digital apps, videos and face to face training available.  This should reduce the number of times you need to access health services.  If you are interested in taking part please contact your GP Surgery.

These are some of the following discussion we may have:

 

How everyone can eat well to support health

 

Medication review to ensure you are getting the full benefits

 

Exercise for health for people who dont exercise
