The Roaring Adventures of Puff (RAP): Program Modifications

Capital Health instructors implement RAP in accordance with the guidelines provided by the Alberta Asthma Center. All the designed information is provided to the children during the six lesson periods. However, Capitol Health instructors have reorganized some of the information within the six lessons. No learning objectives or supporting instructional materials have been eliminated from the program (Table 4).
