ASTHMA EDUCATION

 

The cardiopulmonary staff at EMHS can help you understand your asthma.

 

Upon request from your physician, the staff can instruct you in the proper use of nebulizers and MDI’s to ensure you receive the maximum benefit from you medications.

 

We can also teach you how to monitor your peak flows and what actions need to be taken when the numbers fall below your normal range.

 

Any questions regarding asthma concerns please contact:
