“You are a community health nurse doing immunizations at a homeless shelter who encounters a resident with serious environmental health concerns. All three of the resident’s children are asthmatics. From the time the family was forced to seek residence in the shelter, the children–particularly the youngest–have had multiple acute asthma episodes. The shelter manager is unwilling to correct the building’s dust, mold, and inadequate heating problems and has told residents that they will be evicted if they complain to the city about the conditions. There is a waiting list for the shelter, as it is the only one available within the city limits. The mother sees no way out for herself and her children. Anxious and distraught, she asks you for help.”
