Does the Home Assessment include surveying the exposure to outdoor air (i.e. status of windows/doors). Does the Home Assessment survey the outdoor exposures in close proximity (300 yards) to the home? For example, what if crops are fertilized or crop dusted and are in close proximity to the home? Folks are always talking about only 15% of time is spent outdoors. However, patients carry in exposures into the home; whether pollen, VOC's, etc.
Have you been involved or used HVAC and duct cleaning on any of your test homes to reduce the amount of air born particulate to help reduce the irratants that can trigger asthma? If so do you have any current findings?
Do you have any in-home asthma assessment resources to share?
25 homes were assessed over what period of time and what was the average cost per home?
What is being done to address reduce/eliminate fragrance use in the homes?
How does one motivate a school district to care about indoor air quality and eliminate asthma triggers in the classroom? I'm in Arizona. The admin is not informed so they don't understand the problem. I see all the wonderful resources that teachers and students can use to understand about asthma and good respiratory health. They study the body systems but don't reinforce good health practices with it. They don't understand chemistry. very frustrating so I hope to learn how to serve my call to action with great examples from the webinar today.
Did you do remediation in homes that were owned or did you include rentals as well?
