Best Practices and Lessons Learned
Qualitative Analysis of the Chattanooga, TN Asthma Pilot Program
Pilot Background
Partners in Chattanooga recognized the opportunity to improve health outcomes locally through the design and implementation of a comprehensive asthma intervention program. In 2018, a feasibility study was conducted in partnership with the Green & Healthy Homes Initiative (GHHI) to assess the capacity of local providers to integrate in-home asthma education and trigger remediation services into the existing clinical care structure. Following the study, a core team representing healthcare, healthy housing, and local utility interests was formed to pilot services.
