How does this work?
This group is open to all patients, whether they are newly diagnosed or have PH for many years. A group facilitator will welcome all on the call and give brief updates on resources and news from the Pulmonary Hypertension Association. At least 45 minutes is dedicated to facilitated conversation, which includes many questions and stories from patients on their diagnosis. Anyone can participate, share, ask questions or just choose to remain silent and listen to the conversation. If you register for a particular monthly telephone meeting, you can submit questions in advance and the facilitator can mention these questions as starting points for dialogue.
