Brief Summary

Respiratory rehabilitation is an intervention proven to improve quality of life in those with chronic lung disease but access remains poor. The investigators will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a virtual platform for respiratory rehabilitation as an alternative to in person rehabilitation. The aim is to use the technology in those post admission with COPD where access has been even more of a challenge as during this period patients find it difficult to access an out patient program due to their frailty.
