Limited number of free kits available from AASA

When it comes to teaching school staff how to handle the care of students with asthma, hands-on demonstrations are a best practice to teach proper technique and help ensure correct usage of medications. 

Lorene Alba with AASA is pleased to offer complimentary demonstration toolkits to you or school districts you serve (they are valued at approximately $100) on a first come, first served basis. 

This comprehensive kit includes placebo inhalers to provide hands-on demonstrations to children with asthma, their parents and guardians, school faculty and staff. The kits will help school nurses and asthma educators explain the correct usage, priming and cleaning of asthma devices. Placebo devices include the new HFA rescue inhalers (Albuterol), a controller diskus (Advair), a turbuhaler (Pulmicort), a spacer and peak flow meter; perfect for school nurses to use during health fairs and in-services. 

Supplies are limited, so please contact Lorene Alba at lalba@aasa.org to request one.
