Quick Tips
COPD Healthcare Team Identify a core COPD team within the practice Supporting Information: It may be useful to identify a clinical lead for COPD to inspire ongoing COPD developments within your practice. This can be shared by several clinicians. Many practices opt for a Lead GP and Lead Nurse in Respiratory Care. It is useful to remember that key to their role is the dissemination of information and delegation of roles within the team. Each team member has different skills to offer patients with COPD and the key is to get the patient to the right person for their particular health needs. This may be, for example, the dietician, smoking cessation advisor, nurse or GP. The key is for everyone to have an awareness of the skills of each member of the team and refer appropriately. |
