Second Thursday of every month 4:00 to 5:00pm.
Many people live with chronic illness, such as diabetes, COPD, CHF/heart disease, stroke, kidney disease/ESRD, or sickle cell anemia. Chronic illnesses can affect all aspects of one’s life and dealing with it can become very challenging. Through support and education Ali Karpa CRNP, a cardiovascular nurse practitioner at MedStar Montgomery Medical center will lead a monthly support Group to discuss issues faced by those and their family who live with chronic illnesses. The goal is to assist patients and their loved ones in identifying and coping with these issues.
Walk-ins welcome.
