When breathing becomes difficult due to an infection or chronic condition, you need expert care. At VIPcare, our providers treat a wide range of respiratory and lung issues with skill and compassion.

Helping You Breathe Easier

Whether you're managing a long-term illness or dealing with ongoing symptoms like shortness of breath, VIPcare is here to help. With in-office tests and personalized treatment plans, we’re committed to helping you breathe easier and better.

Respiratory Assessments & Treatments

Breathing issues can affect daily life. Respiratory assessments help identify problems like COPD, asthma, or a lung infection, so a personalized treatment plan can be created.

What it is

A respiratory assessment is a test to check how well the lungs are working and to look for signs of breathing problems or conditions.

How we help

We provide in-office testing and treatment specific to your needs, helping to manage chronic conditions or short-term symptoms so you can breathe without difficulty.

Spirometry (Lung Function Testing)

Spirometry is a simple breathing test that checks how well the lungs are working. It helps detect and monitor conditions like asthma or COPD.

What it is

Spirometry measures how much air you can breathe in and out, and how quickly you can exhale. It is used to diagnose lung conditions or track how well a current treatment is working.

How we help

Spirometry is done in-office for your convenience. The test is quick, painless, and provides immediate results, helping your provider diagnose conditions and create the right treatment plan.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Care

COPD is a common but serious lung condition. It can make everyday tasks feel like you’re climbing a mountain. With proper treatment and management, you can breathe easier.

What it is

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease is a long-term lung condition that includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It worsens over time as the lungs slowly stop working.

How we help

We create a custom COPD care plan for you. This includes medication management, helping you quit smoking, lung therapy support, and regular check-ins to prevent flare-ups.

Your Respiratory and Lung Questions Answered

What is the respiratory system?

The respiratory system includes the organs and tissues that help you breathe. Your lungs are a key part of this system, bringing oxygen into your body and removing waste gases like carbon dioxide. Without a healthy respiratory system, your body can’t get the oxygen it needs to function properly.

What are some early signs of respiratory disease?

Early signs can include a cough that won’t go away, shortness of breath, wheezing, chest tightness, or feeling tired all the time. If you notice any of these, it’s a good idea to talk to your doctor.

What kinds of lung conditions do you treat?

We treat many chronic lung conditions, including COPD, asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and ongoing shortness of breath or cough.

Can VIPcare help if I already have a lung diagnosis?

Yes! We can continue your care, adjust treatments if needed, and help you manage your condition. We’ll work with you to create a senior breathing care plan that’s personalized for your needs.

What treatments are used for respiratory and lung conditions at VIPcare?

At VIPcare, we offer personalized treatments to help improve your breathing and lung function. This includes:

  • Pulmonary Function Test (PFT): A simple test that checks how well your lungs are working and helps diagnose lung conditions.
  • Nebulizer/Breathing Treatments: A machine that turns medicine into a mist for easier inhalation, helping to open airways and improve oxygen flow.
  • Oxygen Treatment: For conditions that make it hard to get enough oxygen, we provide extra oxygen therapy for older adults to help reduce symptoms like fatigue, headaches, and shortness of breath.

Our goal is to create a treatment plan that helps you breathe easier and feel better.

How do I know if I should see a doctor for my breathing?

If you have a cough that won’t go away, trouble catching your breath, or chest tightness, you should schedule an appointment with a VIPcare provider. We can help you find relief.

How can seniors improve lung health?

Lung function declines with age, but seniors can improve lung health by staying active, avoiding smoking, and doing daily breathing exercises for seniors to strengthen lungs and make breathing easier.
