Inhaler Workshop: MDI & Spacer

Do you use a puffer?

Join our FREE, monthly, inhaler workshops! We cover a different inhaler device each month.

This July, we are reviewing the MDI and Spacer (valved holding chamber).

Did you know that over 70% of people don't take their inhalers correctly (Maricoto et al, 2020)? This can lead to an incorrect dose or even a missed medication dose! 

Taking medication with an inhaler might seem easy, but the technique for each inhaler is different and requires specific steps. 

During our free, online, Inhaler Workshops we will:

  • Teach the correct way to take your medication

  • Review cleaning, care and storage of your inhaler

  • Check your inhaler technique

  • Answer your questions about inhalers

We are offering free, monthly Inhaler Workshops, over Zoom.

Join a workshop for each inhaler that you use. Be sure to bring your inhaler to the workshop so that we can check your technique. You will not need to take a dose during the workshop.

To sign up for an Inhaler Workshop, you will need to join our online Poplar Community. It’s free, and you’ll find more resources and free events there too! We are your online breathing community.

Follow this link to Join the Poplar Community. We suggest watching this short YouTube video to learn How to Join the Poplar Community first, so you’ll know what to expect. This video also shows you how to join one of our events, like the Inhaler Workshops and our Chat & Chews.
