Asthma Awareness

Asthma can affect people differently, and familiar routines may need to change when symptoms worsen. Build awareness of individual triggers, support plans and changing needs, helping staff communicate concerns clearly and understand their part in a coordinated response.

Connect the topic with everyday care situations, including activity, environmental factors and the information staff need to understand a person's usual presentation. Discussion emphasises working within the role, following agreed arrangements and recognising when a change needs prompt attention or further advice.
