What will the asthma educator do?
A. The asthma educator will review asthma information with you and explain what your medications are for, how and when to use them and how to make changes in your environment to decrease exposure to your asthma triggers (things that make your asthma worse). You will also learn about your warning signs and symptoms, how to monitor your asthma at home using a peak flow meter and how to make adjustments to your medication when your asthma symptoms worsen by using an asthma action plan made specifically for you.
