Asthma Education
 
       Taking control of your asthma is important.  Recent medical studies overwhelmingly show that patients who proactively manage their asthma in partnership with their physicians can reduce the number of hospital stays, emergency room visits and asthma morbidity.   Several national groups such as the National Institutes of Health and the National Heart Lung Blood Institute have worked to create national asthma education and prevention plans.
