For patients with asthma, Trillium's
Asthma Education Centre offers patients and their families
a patient focused team approach to asthma management. The
goal is to assist the patient in becoming proactive in the
management of their asthma. A Registered Nurse and a Registered
Respiratory Care Practitioner assess patients breathing and
work with patients and their physicians to identify personal
triggers, improve medication techniques and recognize early
warning signs. A personal action plan is also developed to
facilitate improved asthma management.
