I have received the following request for assistance from Siabhan Brophy
from the Asthma counsel who is developing a RHEF broadcast on asthma and
indigenous health.

Fran

I only need to draw up a general outline for the program at this stage,
but I need some guidance to help identify the most appropriate issues.

Specifically, I would like some ideas for particular topics within this
area that might be interesting and useful to a rural healthcare
audience. Some potential topics being considered are paediatric asthma,
access to medicines and spacers, and smoking cessation, but I would like
some advice as to whether there are more relevant alternatives. I would
also welcome any suggestions for presenters.

Would you please be able to help?
