Patient Education & Support
Preparing For Tests
Test Facts explain the test(s) you may be scheduled for, what to expect during the test and how to prepare for the test (i.e. medications to withhold, when to stop eating).
Download Education Materials
It can be overwhelming as a patient or caregiver to learn about the many facets of managing an illness or chronic condition. Download free Med Facts and Understanding Booklets to learn more about your disease.
Patient Education Classes
There are a number of free weekly group classes for patients and family members. Nurses, physical therapists, recreational therapists, pharmacists and nutritionists teach the classes. Discussion is encouraged.
Support Groups
National Jewish Health encourages you to participate in support groups to foster a sense of community and get information in a supportive and caring fashion.
Individual Patient Education
