If you are on treatment for asthma, our nurses run clinics in order to ensure your condition is being maintained as well as possible. Often, you may be experiencing problems but you have come to accept these as normal, or you may be able to get better control than you have.

A check on your inhaler technique, and a check on your medication can often make a big difference to your abilities and your symptoms. Our nurses are skilled in checking these factors and can monitor your condition with peak flow readings and spirometry ( a more advanced method of monitoring your lung function). They can also advise on changes to the way you take your medication and on the addition of different medication to help your condition.
