Napp Academy are partnering with Education for Health to deliver four educational workshops aimed at nurses and other healthcare practitioners working in primary care, who have some knowledge of asthma, but who wish to gain a greater understanding of appropriate treatment of patients with asthma. These workshops provide a dynamic and flexible approach to collaborative learning focused on asthma diagnosis, management and more. They will include interactive, case study based sessions on asthma diagnosis, pharmacological management, inhaler device choices, adolescent asthma care and myth-busting, all delivered by a practising, specialist nurse.
