RECOVERY
Early Recovery
People affected by bronchiectasis flare-up may require support to transition back to a physically active lifestyle and re-engage in a regular physiotherapy routine. Part of your regular physiotherapy routine will be airway clearance therapy. You will have been given a routine to follow for clearing your lung mucus while you are in hospital. This routine may be new to you, or may differ from what your usual routine is. Your physiotherapist should advise you of the requirements for follow-up regarding your airway clearance therapy prior to discharge.
This process ideally starts during the time of hospitalisation and continues after discharge.
