Practical support and resources

Practical support and resources

For anyone living with a rare, chronic condition, having access to practical support and resources can be extremely valuable.

For those living with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) it is important to know there are a range of support options available, whether it be family, friends, other people living with PAH (peer support), patient organisations or of course, your healthcare team.

Here is a list of useful links to patient associations and additional patient support websites.
