The Children’s Hospital Colorado Annual Reach the Peak Conference is our annual interdisciplinary educational conference for health team members managing patients with asthma. Facilitated by leading experts in their field, Reach the Peak incorporates problem-based learning methods with a combination of lectures, small group case scenarios, networking and comprehensive collaboration strategies. The information presented helps provide updates in current asthma management guidelines, practice challenges and discussion on addressing social determinants impacting asthma care.

Proceeds from Reach the Peak support Roundup River Ranch help children and families with asthma and lung disorders to attend camp. Camp opportunities can be life changing for these children.

• Describe the pathophysiology and contributing factors of asthma diagnosis.
• Develop an Asthma Action Plan that includes prescribed medications and behavioral and environmental modifications.
• Integrate newly acquired knowledge into clinical practice.
• Conduct a patient and family assessment addressing the medical history, objective measures of asthma severity and educational needs.
• Assess community needs, develop programs to address identified needs and measure outcomes related to program effectiveness.
