Asthma Education
We believe it is important that all patients with asthma see their GP to devise an asthma management plan. We also assist with the following:
- Lung function assessment and testing
- Effective inhaler technique training
- Advice for management of exercise induced asthma
- Asthma Management Plans for children at school
- Personal long term plans to self manage your asthma
- Optimisation of your asthma medications and lung function
