From Counter to Consult

This educational activity is designed as a companion to the 2025 National Asthma Council guideline update series. Where those educational videos cover the key changes of the updated Australian Asthma Handbook (Handbook) guidelines, this session is focused on the how, including practical skills, conversations, and decisions that each member of the primary care team can use to translate the updated Handbook guidelines into behaviour change and better patient outcomes.

The session follows the patient journey from first point of contact at the pharmacy counter, through a GP consultation, to ongoing management and follow-up. At each stage, the content  focuses in on the specific role of the GP, nurse, and pharmacist, making the content directly relevant to all three audiences throughout.

Learning Outcomes

1. Identify patients with poorly controlled asthma at their specific point of care and take appropriate action within their scope of practice.
2. Apply the 2025 Asthma Treatment Levels for adults and adolescents to initiate or transition patients to Anti-Inflammatory Reliever-only (AIR) or Maintenance-and-Reliever Therapy (MART).
3. Collaborate effectively across the GP–nurse–pharmacist interface to deliver coordinated, guideline-concordant asthma care.
