Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a long-term lung condition that affects millions of seniors and adults across the U.S. Characterized by chronic bronchitis, emphysema, shortness of breath, and frequent respiratory infections, COPD can make even simple daily tasks exhausting. While there is no cure, the right care and lifestyle support can help manage symptoms, improve comfort, and prevent unnecessary hospital visits.
