eAMS increases a patient's awareness of their asthma symptoms and empowers them to be proactive
in self-management. Furthermore, when patients complete the eAMS questionnaire at regular intervals,
clinicians are better able to manage poorly controlled asthma in a timely manner. Having eAMS
automatically generate an asthma action plan tailored to the patient's current treatment regimen
is an immense time saver and clinicians are ensured that the plan is developed based on the latest
recommendations.

I love the eAMS tool. It's so easy to use and really saves me time, which is refreshing given the
administrative burden in family medicine these days. It almost feels like a magic elf has appeared
out of nowhere and done a some of my work for me! I also love knowing my patients are getting up-to-date
evidence-based asthma care.

The Electronic Asthma Management System gives us the information that we need,
when we need it, and provides us with evidence based decision support. Having
patients fill out online questionnaires which automatically populate into
their charts is a real time saver. The built in action plan generator helps
ensure that there is an appropriate action plan and that patients know how to
use it. This is a practical, intuitive tool that can really help optimize our
care of patients with asthma.

The providers that have used it have had incredibly positive experiences,
they found it very easy to use and were quite surprised at how many patients
had recommended medication changes. It's a very well-designed application
and it requires quite a minimal effort on the provider's part but it has
quite significant positive implications when it comes to quality of care
for patients.

eAMS has been an amazing asset for our program. Both myself and the Pharmacist
on the team have been lucky enough to use eAMS for the past year. We have found
it very user friendly for both patients and healthcare professionals. It helps
us ensure our patients are aware of their asthma triggers and have a readily
available asthma action plan allowing them to be more pro-active with their own
asthma management and to feel they have more control over their asthma. Also,
because eAMS is continuously updated when asthma guidelines and medications
available change, you always get the most recent recommendations.

eAMS-Pharm has significantly enhanced how I manage asthma in my community pharmacy.
It makes it easy to identify uncontrolled patients, guide evidence-based decisions,
and provide clear, actionable plans—all within a busy workflow. It's a practical,
high-impact tool that empowers pharmacists to deliver more proactive, patient-centered
care and truly elevate our role in managing chronic disease.

Pharmacist/Owner of Westmount Place Pharmasave & Home Health Care
As a busy clinical pharmacy team, we are constantly looking for tools that are
practical, evidence-based, and easy to integrate into workflow — and eAMS-Pharm
truly exceeded our expectations. It was intuitive, quick to use, and immediately
impactful in helping us deliver a higher level of asthma care.
The platform gave our pharmacists confidence to make real-time, guideline-based
recommendations that strengthened collaboration with physicians and improved the
consistency and quality of patient care. Most importantly, patients felt more
supported, engaged, and empowered in managing their asthma, which significantly
improved satisfaction and trust in our pharmacy services.
Very few tools improve clinical care, workflow, patient experience, and pharmacy
value all at once — eAMS-Pharm did exactly that.
