The Centre Hospitalier du Forez is organizing an awareness and screening day for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) in Feurs on Thursday, November 19, 2026.

On the occasion of World COPD Day, the health facility invites the public to test their respiratory function. This initiative is particularly aimed at smokers and former smokers.
COPD is a chronic respiratory disease characterized by progressive obstruction of the airways, often linked to smoking. It can develop discreetly for several years, highlighting the importance of early screening.
Symptoms such as persistent cough, unusual shortness of breath, or fatigue should not be ignored. Early screening allows for better management of the disease.

Your health matters: get screened!

The event will take place at the Théâtre du Forum, located at 24 rue Camille Pariat in Feurs, from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Access is free and open to all. This screening event does not replace a medical consultation.
For more information, you can contact the Centre Hospitalier du Forez – Pneumology Department at 04 77 96 78 50.
