Asthma

Long Term Condition Support

Asthma is a condition which affects the airways, when a person with asthma comes into contact with a trigger (for example pollen, house dust mite or cold air) it causes their airways to tighten and narrow, which can make it difficult to breathe.

  • Our practice nurses have specialist asthma qualifications. They run clinics in order that asthma may be assessed, advice offered, queries answered, and correct treatment ensured.
  • Patients on asthma medication should be reviewed at least once a year by our specialist asthma nurses.
