Our records show that you need an annual monitoring review for Asthma.
- It is important that your annual monitoring review is carried out so we can ensure your condition is properly controlled and managed. We will not be able to re-authorise any repeat medication requests if you have not had your annual monitoring review.
- We will send you a text message asking you to complete a questionnaire. Our nursing team will review the answers that you give and contact you if necessary.
- If we are not able to Text you, we will send a letter and ask you to complete this form online
- If it is felt you Asthma is poorly controlled, we will call or text you to book an appointment. Please bring your inhalers with you, to your face-to-face appointment.
If you are unable to answer the questionnaire, then please phone 01452 529933 and choose option 1 to book a nurse review.
This review is only once a year so we would encourage you to make every effort to complete it or attend, which may involve asking a relative or neighbour for a lift or getting a taxi. If you are however unable to leave your home, then please speak to a Patient Adviser.
