Join us for the Webinar: Managing your COPD During Winter

Research finds that as many as 66 million people in the European region may be living with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease but very few people have ever heard of this disease.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD) is a group of respiratory conditions that include Chronic Bronchitis and Emphysema. It affects many patients in different ways depending on their individual triggers and exacerbations. A common trigger among most patients is cold weather.  

With November being COPD Awareness Month and the 21st is World COPD Day, join Medicare LifeSense for a free webinar that delves into what people with COPD can do during the winter to care for themselves.
