About this Event
Join us for a full-day Interstitial Lung Disease (ILD) Education Day designed for patients and their families.
Co-hosted by the ILD Clinic at St. Joseph’s Hospital and the Pulmonary Hypertension Association of Canada, this event brings together expert physicians and allied health professionals to provide practical, easy-to-understand information about living with ILD.
Throughout the day, you’ll learn about ILD, including treatment options, oxygen therapy, pulmonary rehabilitation, the transplant process, and the latest research and emerging therapies. Each session includes time for questions, giving you the opportunity to engage directly with experts.
The day will also highlight conditions that can be associated with ILD, including pulmonary hypertension and scleroderma, helping you better understand potential risks and what to watch for over time.
This is an opportunity to connect with others who understand the journey, ask questions, and gain tools to help you live well with ILD. Whether you are newly diagnosed or have been living with ILD for years, this day is designed to support, inform, and empower you.
