Nurse Adviceline

ILFA’s ILD Nurse-Led Telephone Adviceline is now live and taking your calls! The adviceline is a national Freephone service available Monday to Friday, 10am to 3pm, offering specialist nursing advice and support for people living with interstitial lung disease and their families. When you call, you will speak directly with an experienced ILD nurse who can provide clear guidance on a new or existing diagnosis, medications and side effects, changes in symptoms, day-to-day self-management, and living well with lung fibrosis, as well as signposting you to relevant supports across Ireland. This free, confidential, non-emergency service complements your usual GP and hospital care, giving you a dedicated space to ask questions, talk through concerns, and feel more confident managing your condition.

If you are living with ILD or supporting someone who is, we encourage you to get in touch and access the support available to you. 

To contact ILFA’s Nurse-Led Adviceline, call our Freephone number at 1 800 99 88 11.

Please note that the ILD Nurse Led Adviceline does not replace urgent medical care when needed. If this is an emergency, dial 999 or 112 immediately to connect with the emergency services.
