ASTHMA SUPPORT GROUP
Asthma affects more than 15 million Americans including nearly 5 million children. In central Wisconsin, A Child and Teen Asthma Support Group has formed by Saint Joseph's Hospital Marshfield. The goal of the group is to provide education support and enhancement of the quality of life for children and their families whose lives are affected by asthma.

Children's Miracle Network provides funding for this program. If you would like to be placed on a mailing list for upcoming events, please call Respiratory Care at Saint Josephs Hospital at 715-387-7696 or email at boehninr@stjosephs-marshfield.org.
