Health Promotion: Pediatric Asthma in South Florida
Number of pages:
10
ABSTRACT:
A 10 page paper discussing a proposed health promotion targeting management of pediatric asthma in South Florida. Though epidemiologists have not yet been able to reach consensus on a reason for the shift of prevalence of asthma over the past two decades, the fact remains that the incidence of asthma has increased at alarming rates. This is as true in the United Kingdom and in major US cities as it is in rural south Florida, in the region of Okeechobee, West Palm Beach and other surrounding areas. The paper discusses program design and implementation, cost-benefit analysis, social impact analysis, cultural sensitivity and peer education. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
