Provincial Representatives for COPD Information & Resource Availability.... by Province
Here in Canada our healthcare system is very fragmented. A med that may be covered in one province by Pharmacare, may not be in another. Additionally, some provinces have a number of Rehab facilities as well as Support Groups; others have only one or two.
But where are they and how do you get in?
You may have questions about who to talk to about finding out if you qualify for disability, home oxygen, or even obtaining a handicap sticker.
It's issues like these that our Provincial Reps will make every effort to help you with.
(NOTE: Not all of our provinces have a representative as yet so if you think this might be something you'd be interested in helping with, please send an e mail to Contact@copdcanada.ca)
