Asthma Clinic

Prevention Is The Key!

Many of us take a daily vitamin to optimize our good health. It is the same idea with asthma medications.

Don’t stop your preventor medication when you start to feel better!

The trick is to continue it every day so that you continue to feel good.

Lay the groundwork so you don’t have a problem, rather than increasing your visits to the ER and your doctor when you are in trouble again.

“Helping You Breathe Easier”

Goal:

To help you understand your role in asthma self-management.

  • What is asthma?
  • Are my allergies related?
  • What can I do to help my symptoms?
  • What are my triggers?
  • How do I use my medications?
  • What can I do when I’m having trouble?

What to expect at your appointment:

  • You will work with a certified asthma educator to find out what works best for you.
  • Your first appointment will take up to 90 minutes.
  • Your follow up appointments will be 30-60 minutes and will take place every six months.
  • If you are able, a breathing test will be done to see how your asthma is doing.
  • You will learn things that you can do to help your asthma and how to make your medications best work for you.
