Find affordable caregivers with COPD experience

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a lung disease characterized by chronic obstruction of lung airflow that interferes with normal breathing and is not fully reversible. The more familiar terms ‘chronic bronchitis’ and ’emphysema’ are no longer used, but are now included within the COPD diagnosis.

COPD makes mobility extremely difficult because you cannot always get enough oxygen. Family Directed is able to find the caregivers in your area who know how to handle care recipients with COPD. A Family Directed caregiver can be there every step of the way to ensure the safety and comfort of you or your loved one.

When you use Family Directed to hire and manage caregivers, you have more control over the process and information about the care being provided. You can meet caregivers before you hire them. You can set an hourly rate that is fair to you and to the caregiver. Once you’ve found the right caregiver, our mobile app will help you understand when and how care is being provided. The Family Directed app will also let you schedule shifts, approve payments, and review care reports.
