Resources for patients and carers

In response to colleagues' requests for quality-assured information to share with patients about respiratory health and self-management, IPCRG offers a range of resources that can be used to start conversations with patients, engage in shared decision-making and/or be shared with patients to be used independently to help manage their condition. This webpage brings together these resources into one place, and is also hosted on the WHO's Knowledge Action Portal. Take a look at the tools and videos we offer and why not try sharing with your patients and recommending to your peers?
