Centre of Pulmonary Rehabilitation
The Centre for Pulmonary Rehabilitation (CPR) is owned and operated by a local Registered Respiratory Therapist. Offering only Pulmonary Rehabilitation when it opened its doors over 17 years ago, it soon became a Registered Vendor of Record with the Ministry of Health to do both Home Oxygen and Respiratory Devices. By doing so, CPR was able to reinvest back into the community and make pulmonary rehab more affordable for residents in need.
