We have called these types of pulmonary rehabilitation “Virtual Pulmonary Rehabilitation”, and are available as a hand book or online material.
Each programme has been designed to be performed over 6 weeks, containing both exercises and education sessions. The exercises are progressive, meaning they will be more difficult over the 6 week programme. Throughout the programme, you will be contacted a minimum of once weekly by a member of the team to review the exercises and education with you, and support you through the programme. You will also be provided with the contact number and encouraged to contact the team if you have any concerns or queries.
To access either of these programmes you will need to have been referred by a health care professional such as your GP, community matron, or hospital team. Prior to starting the programme you will be contacted by a member of the team to discuss the programmes and to make sure you are safe to exercise at home.
Please ensure you have been assessed by the Pulmonary rehabilitation team before starting the programme, to ensure you are safe to exercise.
(Please watch before you begin the exercise session).
