An action plan is a set of steps an individual can follow in order to maintain asthma under control or in case of an asthma attack and asthma gets out of control. (Download SCUSD Asthma action plan.)

Action plans may vary between different locations, but in general, an action plan will walk a person through the situation especially in regards to asthma attacks, recognizing an asthma attack, medication treatments for an asthma attack and when to get help.
