Review for PRESCOTT-JOSEPH CENTER FOR COMMUNITY ENHANCEMENT INC, Oakland, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Prescott Joseph is making a real difference in Bay Area communities by operating the one and only Breathmobile® in Northern California. Weekly this 33 ft. Winnebago RV, outfitted with the latest equipment to function as a mobile asthma clinic, visits some 200 kids at various schools around the Bay Area. Through the Breathmobile's vital work, positive outcomes are being realized every day. In low income communities, 200 high-risk children with asthma have increased their asthma management skills and 85% of these children have gained control of their asthma within 5 Breathmobile visits. As a result, local asthma-related Emergency Room visits and hospitalizations have declined by 70% for high-risk children. As well, asthma-related school absenteeism has also declined by 70%. It's an honor to be part of an organization that is truly serving the needs of those who are at risk.
