Calgary Mobile Health Services

This year, our core message for Asthma Awareness Month is simple: recognizing the signs of an asthma attack and responding quickly could save a life.

Signs of an asthma attack include: wheezing, distressed breathing, persistent coughing, difficulty speaking, chest tightness and lips or fingernails turning blue or grey.

If an asthma attack happens, remember C.A.R.E.:

C – Calm: Keep them calm and reassure them
A – Air: Sit them upright and encourage slow breathing
R – Rescue Inhaler: Help them find and use their rescue inhaler (usually blue).
E – Emergency: Call 911 if there is no inhaler or no improvement after using the inhaler

Reminder!

Because flossing pictures never get old, and Meg is here to lift the “idea” that flossing is inconvenient or time consuming.

-flossing can be done anywhere
-flossing takes less than a minute
-cleaning between your teeth and under the gums is important for long term gum and overall health!
