About the Network |
|
The Oregon Asthma Network is made up of physicians, nurses, parents, health plans, people with asthma, environmental organizations, respiratory therapists, government agencies, and others who are concerned about the disease in Oregon. The Network has over 1,600 members and serves as a forum for people to exchange ideas on ways to improve quality of life for Oregonians with asthma.
The Network's goals and priorities are found in the Asthma Leadership Plan. Anybody with an interest in asthma is welcome.
