Delivering Community-Based Pulmonary Rehabilitation for Patients With COPD in a Safety-Net Health Care Setting: The COPD Wellness Program
The COPD Wellness program demonstrated feasibility, safety, and acceptability within a safety-net health care setting. The integration of HA addressed key social barriers, improving adherence and leading to greater improvements in COPD symptom burden compared with the COPD Wellness program alone. Future studies should explore scaling this model and assessing its long-term benefits in resource-limited environments.
