A written Asthma Action Plan assists you in recognising when your asthma is getting worse and what to do about it.
Information in your action plan includes:- Medications when well

Our nurses are able to tailor your Asthma Action Plan to your individual circumstances, providing important tools to assist with your asthma self-management.
Spirometry Testing
A spirometry is a pulmonary function test that measures how much air a person breathes out, and how quickly.
This test measures how well the lungs are working which is useful for diagnosing asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other breathing conditions.
