T.J. Regional Health Launches Better Breathers Support Group

T.J. Regional Health is proud to announce the launch of the Better Breather Club, a support group designed to help individuals with chronic lung diseases such as COPD, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and lung cancer live healthier, fuller lives. The club is part of a national network of patient-centered programs supported by the American Lung Association.

The Better Breathers Club offers education, resources, and peer support in a friendly and supportive environment. Meetings will be on the second Monday of every month at 1:00 pm at the T.J. Health Pavilion Community Center and is open to anyone living with chronic lung conditions, as well as their caregivers and loved ones.

Each session will include expert-led discussion on topics such as pulmonary rehabilitation, medication management, breathing techniques, nutrition, and emotional well-being. Attendees will also have the opportunity to share experiences and form meaningful connections with others facing similar health journeys.

The first meeting is scheduled on September 8th at 1:00 pm at the T.J. Health Pavilion Community Center. There is no cost to attend, but registration is strongly encouraged. For more information or to sign up, please contact Josh Wells-Hardy at (270) 651-4433 or at Joshua.hardy@tjsamson.org.
