Respiratory & Pulmonary Health

When your respiratory system is healthy, you barely give it a thought – but if your breathing is under stress, it’s hard to function well during the day or get a restful sleep at night. Whatever the nature of your breathing condition, we take the time to ensure you and your family are well informed and fully educated on managing your care when leaving our facility. Our Department of Breathing Diseases provides a compassionate outpatient setting with patient-centered evaluation that includes education, spirometry, and treatment of breathing disorders and conditions

Proper asthma management involves you or your child seeing your doctor at least every three months.
According to published World Health Organisation’s (WHO) data, 1,704 Ghanaians lost their lives to ashma in 2017.

At Breathe Easy Sleep Better, our team focuses on early asthma diagnosis, comprehensive assessment, effective treatment pathways, patient and family education, and adoption of customized Asthma Action Plans to empower patients in self-management efficacy.

Sleep Apnea

Sleep Apnea is a serious condition that occurs when your breathing is interrupted during sleep. People with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing several times throughout the night. This condition may prevent the brain and the entire body from getting enough oxygen to function properly; leaving individuals tired and yawning during the day. Sleep apnea seriously disrupts the sleep cycle that helps to rejuvenate the body and maximize energy levels. In other words, repeated apnea or sleep disruptions can result in poor quality of life and development of dangerous health conditions.
