Environmental Assessment/Checklist

Asthma Home Environment Checklist

EPA developed the Home Environment Checklist to help home care visitors by providing a list of questions and action steps to assist in the identification and mitigation of environmental asthma triggers commonly found in and around homes. The checklist is designed to allow home care visitors to focus on the specific activities or things in a room - in particular the asthma patient’s sleeping area - that might produce or harbor environmental triggers. The activities recommended in the checklist are generally simple and low cost.
