People with pulmonary conditions can experience breathing difficulties that may worsen over time and lead to complications. The Pulmonary Rehabilitation Program at NYU Langone Hospital—Suffolk is designed to meet the unique needs of individuals with pulmonary disease.

Our comprehensive program benefits those who have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis, lung cancer, lung reduction surgery, sarcoidosis, and individuals awaiting lung transplant. Our experts lead you in exercises to improve your overall endurance by reconditioning your lungs and heart.

We also provide educational sessions to help you identify symptoms and manage your condition at home, including sessions on the following:

• medication administration
• oxygen therapy
• diet, nutrition, and weight management
• identifying triggers, self-care techniques, and when to seek help

Pulmonary rehabilitation helps you control respiratory symptoms and complications, reducing the need for frequent hospitalizations. Our experts provide emotional and social support to help you manage anxiety, depression, and stress related to your condition. We strive to improve your overall quality of life.

A physician referral is required for admission into the program. Sessions run two to three times a week and can last three to four months. Most insurance will cover pulmonary rehabilitation services, but the approved sessions vary based on your diagnosis. We also offer supervised, self-pay classes for sustaining and maintaining your long-term progress.
