Managing Our Health Program

About the Program

The Managing Our Health Program provides information to patients on ways in which they can better manage their health and cope with the symptoms and side effects of their disease and treatment therapies.  Information Bulletins are produced on a regular basis and posted on our website for individuals to download. 

How It Works

Experts help the Foundation prepare short, patient-friendly "information bulletins" on some of our most pressing health management concerns.  A small, committed group of patients and caregivers not only identify the issues but they also review the draft materials to ensure that they are easily understood and accurately reflect patient challenges.  Before it is posted on our website, our Medical Advisory Council reviews and approves the content for medical and scientific accuracy.  In some cases, members of our Medical Advisory Council have helped us prepare these documents.

Important: Please note that the information found in these bulletins is not intended to replace informed medical advice.  You should consult your dermatologist or other healthcare professional (e.g., physician, dentist, pharmacist, etc.) for individual medical advice.   While the information is presented with due care, the Canadian Pemphigus and Pemphigoid Foundation does not guarantee that it is free from all errors or omissions.
