Asthma Improves with Management (AIM)

The AIM program provides patients and families with individualized asthma management education by a Certified Asthma Educator (AE-C).

The AIM staff are educators and advocates for the patient and their families! We listen to your concerns and understand the many challenges families living with asthma are faced with. The AIM team works with Henry J. Austin Health Center providers, programs and services and partners with community agencies and organizations to provide resources to help improve the quality of life for the patient and their family. This includes linking families to community programs that can provide healthy home assessments, transportation, and community education workshops at sites throughout the Trenton area.

• Asthma management education for HJAHC participating patients and their families
• Community education workshops for residents of the greater Trenton area
