Healthtalk Australia Severe Asthma

In this website, people with severe asthma from all different parts of Australia talk about their experiences of living with severe asthma: the emotional burden, challenges of everyday life, personal relationships, what they value out of their interactions with healthcare providers and how medication affects them. The website is a great resource for people with severe asthma and their families, as well as for students and health professionals, and to inform patient care and future policy improvements.
