Improving Care for People with Asthma: Working with Community Partners ECHO Session

Our 4th Asthma Essentials ECHO session brought together 48 participants and was facilitated by Pat Flanagan, MD. The didactic session, presented by Daniel Fitzgerald, MPH, ICPS, American Lung Association and Ashley Fogarty, MPH, Rhode Island Department of Health, focused on “Working with Community Partners”. Participants learned about resources that are available through the American Lung Association to support adults and through the RI Department of Health to support students and families. Marjorie Carges, MD, Bald Hill Coastal Medical, provided the case presentation which allowed for richer discussion of supporting patients with asthma in foster care and how to leverage community resources to support these patients. Access materials and the recording from previous meetings here. Funding for this program is provided by RI Department of Health.
