NTM-PD healthcare professional toolkit

An Educational Resource Support for all Stakeholders in NTM Patient Care

​The NTM Action Toolkit is an educational resource for healthcare professionals who are interested in improving the provision of care for patients with pulmonary disease associated with non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM-PD).

​

This interactive toolkit provides guidance for setting up or co-ordinating an existing NTM service to ensure that patients feel supported and able to access treatment for their condition, which can have a significant impact on their quality of life.

​

Complementing best practice guidelines for NTM-PD management, the toolkit aligns with advice offered by organisations such as the British Thoracic Society and the British Lung Foundation for the diagnosis, treatment, and assistance of patients.

​​

You can advance through each chapter as you read or head to the contents page to access a different module. Downloadable resources and helpful tips will allow you to gain an insight into diverse aspects of running an effective service for NTM-PD patients, such as putting together a business case, the value of multidisciplinary teams, and optimising patient care.

​

Development of this non-promotional medical education toolkit was funded by Insmed Ltd and has been devised in consultation with a steering committee of NTM-PD experts.​​
