School-based Health Program Helps Child Manage Asthma

Discover how a school-based telehealth program with MUSC is transforming healthcare access for students with asthma, like young Zaire, who has struggled to manage his condition for years. Zaire’s school nurse introduced his family to a telehealth program that provides him with immediate, in-school medical support. Thanks to MUSC’s dedicated care team and TytoCare’s Pro Smart Clinic, Zaire can now breathe easier, stay active, and finally enjoy his childhood without frequent ER visits or missed school days. Watch to see how a community-focused telehealth approach is making a real difference – one breath at a time!
