Using this resource
CFReady is a free educational resource about cystic fibrosis. There are no accounts, no payments, and nothing to sign up for. This page explains how to use it and, most importantly, what it is not.
Important medical disclaimer
This is a free educational resource, not medical advice. Cystic fibrosis affects every person differently. Always follow the specific plan agreed with the student or child's family and their CF healthcare team.
Nothing on CFReady is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for professional clinical judgment. Always seek advice from qualified healthcare professionals and follow the individual care and emergency plan agreed for a specific student or child.
What this resource is
CFReady provides free, plain-language educational content about cystic fibrosis, written to help teachers, parents, and anyone curious understand what CF can mean at school. Some of it is grounded in lived experience, and some draws on general public guidance.
It is general information only. Cystic fibrosis affects every person differently, so the content here will not capture any one student's specific needs.
No emergency or clinical service
CFReady is not a medical, nursing, pharmacy, or emergency service, and using it does not create any professional healthcare relationship. If someone has symptoms or a medical emergency, contact emergency services and qualified healthcare professionals immediately, and follow the approved care and emergency procedures for that person.
Accuracy and your judgment
We aim to keep the content clear and accurate, but we cannot guarantee it is complete, current, or suitable for your specific situation. Always check important decisions against current guidance, your own setting, and qualified professional advice. Do not rely on CFReady as the sole basis for any medical, safety, or care decision.
Your privacy
CFReady does not require an account and does not collect personal information. Any learning progress and your name on a printable certificate are stored only in your own browser and are never sent to us or anyone else. Clearing your browser data removes them.
Sharing and reuse
You're welcome to read and share this resource to help others understand cystic fibrosis. Please don't present it as accredited training or as a substitute for a student's care plan or professional advice.
