Today is World Lung Day!
It’s a great reminder of how important it is to protect your lungs starting with staying up to date on your vaccines, including your flu shot this season!

Vaccination helps reduce the risk of serious lung infections and keeps you breathing easier all year long.
Our doctors, nurses, and staff are committed to helping you maintain healthy lungs. Through education and exercise, our programs support you in reaching your maximum level of independence and function.

If you or a loved one could benefit from lung health support, visit our website at hfsc.org to learn more.
