Our Facebook page, Youtube channel and this website hold a wealth of information (e.g. correct inhaler technique etc) that may be of use during this time.”
However, your input and advice is critical to help us better understand the needs of health care providers and patients alike, and so that we can continue to improve our service. Working with you is essential to gaining information we need to deliver our service and help you deliver yours.
