Respiratory Care Week gives us a little more breathing room annually on October 19-30. Hard-working doctors, nurses and respiratory therapists, primarily in Canada, care for patients with breathing difficulties due to chronic conditions like asthma. Respiratory Care Week highlights the information we need to keep us breathing well so we can enjoy a great quality of life.
Healthy Lung Month is the entire month of October so, take a deep breath and enjoy! Many organizations have joined forces to educate the public about the importance of protecting our lungs against general neglect, bronchitis, mold, air pollution and smoking. Bottom line: if we take care of our lungs, our lungs will take care of us.
