Asthma Management
Asthma is one of the most common chronic childhood illnesses. When poorly treated, asthma interferes with a child’s ability to be a kid. From a chronic cough to shortness of breath with exercise, even regular childhood play can become challenging.
At Acton Medical, our providers will create an individualized plan to control your child’s asthma. In addition, our asthma educator will make sure treating your child’s asthma is as simple and understandable as possible.
At AMA, Tiffany McNamara, our Certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner and Pediatric Asthma Educator, collaborates with your child’s primary care provider to enhance the asthma management process. Our service focuses on reducing symptoms and emergency medication use, preventing hospital visits, and maintaining normal activities. We offer personalized asthma action plans based on each child’s unique medical history and triggers, aiming for improved asthma control and minimized impact on daily life.
