Webinars: Indoor Air Quality
Join California Nurses for Environmental Health and Justice for a free 4-part webinar series on Indoor Air Quality in Homes! On average, Americans spend 90% of their time indoors. Understanding the importance of indoor air quality is crucial for nurses, as poor air quality can exacerbate respiratory conditions, affect vulnerable populations like children and the elderly, and contribute to chronic illnesses. By being informed about these risks, you can better educate and advocate for healthier environments, ultimately improving patient care and public health.
