 Did you know only 7% of healthcare professionals could demonstrate all the recognised steps in administration including assessment of inspiratory flow using the in-check device? (Baverstock M, Woodhall N & Maarman V 2010). And the Isle of Wight Inhaler Technique project showed that pharmacist who delivered good inhaler training as part of MURs produced outcome data over 9 months that showed a 50% reduction in emergency hospital admissions due to asthma, a 50% reduction in length of stay in hospital due to asthma and 75% reduction in asthma related deaths. This workshop will provide an overview of the clinical skills required to support respiratory patients to manage their condition and maximise the patient’s quality of life.
