AAE Schools Committee

This survey is being conducted by the Association of Asthma Educators Schools Committee.  We are seeking your input to help AAE formulate services and resources that will help those who educate school-age children with asthma.  We ask you to take approximately 5 minutes to answer the following 16 questions.  When you answer each question, please provide your response from the perspective of your role at school and/or the child care center (CCC). Thank you. We appreciate your time and interest. 
 
PURPOSE:
The primary purpose of the AAE is to promote asthma education as an integral component of a comprehensive asthma program, to raise the competence of health care professionals who educate individuals and families affected by asthma, and to raise the standard of care and quality of asthma education delivered to those with asthma. To that end, the association recognizes that asthma education should reflect the recommendations of the national guidelines and serve to meet the needs of the target population. The express purpose of asthma education is to improve health outcomes for individuals and families affected by asthma.

School-Child Care Committee:

Goal: Assure appropriate, population-based asthma care education, programs and resources for school-age children with asthma and parents of children with asthma. This committee is working to:

  • improve asthma education for child care staff, school   staff, school nurses, coaches, athletic trainers, parents, and patients; 
  • identify, design and disseminate appropriate patient and parent educational materials;
  • provide strategies to be able to bill for asthma education; and
  • publicize national, state and local asthma resources and initiatives.
