The Asthma Action Plan allows you to generate printed guidelines to help manage a patient's asthma. You can print these guidelines in both English or Spanish. The printed documents can be based on any of the following:
Symptoms
Predicted peak flow
Personal best peak flow
Each Asthma Action Plan includes details on medications that should be given to the patient based on the severity of his or her condition (indicated by the green, yellow, or red zones).
From this screen, you can print asthma-related handouts (with or without patient and practice information).
For patients less than 20 years old, you can also select to include a Student Medication Administration Authorization form with the Asthma Action Plan. This form indicates that you consent to have either the student or school nurse, as indicated, administer medications in the Asthma Action Plan.
Once signed, the Asthma Action Plan is also available to the patient via Patient Gateway (authorized users only). (However, the Student Medication Administration Authorization form is not available via Patient Gateway.)
