ACPIC 2021: An exploration of decision making when accessing emergency healthcare in moderate to severe asthma patients from rural and remote NSW

About

The ACP International Conference provides an unmatched opportunity for our members to learn from experts and leaders in paramedicine. ACPIC 2021 was delivered as a hybrid conference (online and face to face in the Sunshine Coast, QLD and Hobart, TAS) in November 2021.

This session will explore what is going through patient’s minds when deciding to access emergency healthcare in the event of a moderate to severe asthma attack in rural and remote NSW. We will look into what contributes to both how and when patients are deciding to seek emergency healthcare for one of the largest contributors of respiratory illness throughout Australia.
