Pulmonary Rehabilitation Week | March 8–14 💙

During Pulmonary Rehabilitation Week, Roane General Hospital is proud to recognize our amazing pulmonary rehab team and the important work they do every day for our patients and our community.

Pulmonary rehabilitation helps people with chronic lung conditions like COPD, asthma, chronic bronchitis, and cystic fibrosis breathe easier, build strength, and improve their quality of life. Through personalized exercise, education, and ongoing support, pulmonary rehab can also help reduce hospital visits and emergency care.

We are incredibly grateful for our dedicated therapists and staff who encourage, guide, and support patients every step of the way. Your compassion and expertise truly make a difference, one breath at a time.

If you or a loved one could benefit from pulmonary rehabilitation, Roane General Hospital is here for you. Special thanks to Courtney Dunlap, RRT, NPS and Patty White, CRT for the care they provide to our patients every day.

Sleep Awareness Week | RGH Sleep Lab

Better sleep starts with answers. Better health starts with rest.

If you’re constantly tired, no matter how early you go to bed, you’re not alone. Waking up exhausted, struggling to focus during the day, or hearing complaints about loud snoring can be frustrating and discouraging. For many people, these aren’t just “bad sleep habits,” but signs of an underlying sleep disorder.

During Sleep Awareness Week, Roane General Hospital is highlighting our Sleep Lab, where we help patients get answers to why they’re not sleeping well and help them start feeling like themselves again.

Sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, insomnia, and restless sleep don’t just affect your nights. Over time, poor sleep can impact your heart health, breathing, mood, energy, and overall quality of life, making everyday tasks feel harder than they should be.

At the RGH Sleep Lab, patients receive care in a comfortable, supportive setting. Our team of licensed respiratory therapists and registered sleep technologists, working under physician supervision, provides advanced testing and personalized treatment plans designed to fit your needs, not a one‑size‑fits‑all approach.

💤 Sleep Services Include:

• Overnight sleep studies
• Home sleep apnea testing (when appropriate)
• CPAP and BIPAP titration studies
• Mask fitting and PAP therapy education
• Inspire® therapy evaluation for eligible patients
• Ongoing education and support

Many patients experience better sleep, more daytime energy, and improved long‑term health after diagnosis and treatment.

If you or someone you love deals with loud snoring, daytime fatigue, frequent waking, or never feeling rested, it may be time to talk with your healthcare provider about a sleep study.

Sleep studies typically require a physician referral and are covered by many insurance plans.

Call 304‑927‑6232 for scheduling, referrals, or insurance questions.

At Roane General Hospital, we’re committed to helping our community rest easier, because better sleep truly leads to better health. 💙

As we wrap up American Heart Month, we’re reminded of just how important it is to take care of the heart that takes care of you.

All month long, we’ve celebrated the power of prevention, early detection, and proactive care. Heart disease remains one of the leading health challenges in the U.S., but the good news is that many heart issues are preventable with the right knowledge and care.

If you’ve been thinking about your heart health, or if it’s simply been a while since your last check‑in, now is the perfect time to take the next step.

❤️ Your heart matters here ❤️

Schedule a cardiology consultation today at Roane General Medical Clinic, Walton Medical Clinic, or Arnoldsburg Medical Clinic.

This month is all about awareness, action, and reminding ourselves that early detection truly matters. Many cancers are more treatable and, in some cases, even preventable when they’re caught early through routine screenings and regular check‑ins with your provider.

Different cancers have different risks, but one theme stays the same:
Screening saves lives!!

Here are a few key reminders highlighted this month:

✔ Bowel cancer: When found early, it has a very high chance of being cured. Screening and healthier lifestyle habits can play a major role in prevention.

✔ Lung cancer: More men and women die from lung cancer than any other cancer, mostly because it’s often found late. Knowing symptoms and risk factors is important.

✔ Cervical cancer: Highly treatable when detected early, yet many people skip screenings. Regular screenings make a big difference.

✔ Breast cancer: Of the thousands diagnosed each year, many cases are preventable through lifestyle choices and routine screening.

✔ Prostate cancer: Over 47,000 men are diagnosed each year. Early detection dropped during the pandemic due to missed appointments, now is the time to catch up.

✔ Skin cancer: The earlier it’s found, the better the outcome, especially with melanoma.

Small steps like scheduling a mammogram, colonoscopy, Pap test, skin check, or discussing screening options with your provider can make a meaningful difference in your long‑term health.

Roane General Hospital is here to support our region with education, resources, and screening options all year long, but this month is a perfect reminder to put your health first.
