The Calgary COPD and Asthma program (CCAP) provides one-on-one sessions for tobacco reduction for adults in Calgary and surrounding areas. We accept (and encourage) referrals from patients or their physicians. Sessions are led by one of our Certified Respiratory Educators to provide guidance on specific topics related to quitting such as: health risks; supportive medications; stress, relapse; withdrawal symptoms and weight gain.
We will conduct Spirometry testing (breathing tests) which is reviewed by a Respirologist(Lung Specialist). We offer education on the disease processes of Asthma, COPD, and Chronic Cough, this includes education on medications, environmental triggers, avoidance strategies and much more.
