Asthma care question?

Published

So here is a question and I am stumped....

You are a community health nurse and concerned about your clients with asthma and other respiratory diseases.

Discuss how you would modify their care to address the increased risk due to poor air quality.

I have put in a search in google and I am not coming up with much. Maybe my mind needs a break but I am getting frustrated on my paper.

What resources am I missing???

thanks, Lisa

You can suggest that your clients can improve the air quality of their homes. Purchasing better AC filters or an air purifier would decrease air pollutants. Can't control outdoor polluntants but limiting outside activity during high pollutant days is another option. Not sure if this helps but good luck.

What are some causes of poor air quality in the home? While some of these may not be modifiable, particularly for low income clients and renters, others are.
