Employers: Chronic Disease Management

Asthma

The Chronic Disease Management program is at your pace and your convenience. The program supports you in managing your health. We work on what you are ready to work on, so the program looks different for everyone. Here are some topics that you can choose to work on with your Nurse Care Manager:

  • Asthma education
  • Asthma Action Plan and peak flow meter
  • Medication questions
  • Mental health support
  • Stress management
  • Personalized exercise and eating plans
  • Weight management
  • How to communicate with your doctor
  • Smoking cessation
  • Transportation to medical appointments
 
Here’s what some clients have said about our Chronic Disease Management program:
 
 “I didn’t know that I wasn’t using my inhaler medication right. After my nurse care manger explained how to use my inhalers right, I changed the way I use my inhaler. I can breathe so much better now! I’m losing weight because I can be more active without being short of breath.”
 
“My nurse care manager explained how to get a peak flow meter and how to use an asthma action plan. Now I feel more confident that I know how to manage my asthma.”
 
“I knew that stress and smoking made my asthma worse, but I didn’t know what to do about it. I was able to work with my nurse care manager on stopping smoking and stress management. I can breathe so much better, and I have more energy to do the things that I like to do.”

Since 1875...


AspenPointe has empowered clients, enriched lives and embraced purpose through behavioral health services, counseling services, career services, substance abuse treatment, employment, education, housing, jail diversion/reintegration and care management.

One of the largest nonprofits in Colorado Springs, AspenPointe traces its roots back to 1875 when we were called the Springs Relief Society. That organization, which delivered coal, lumber and clothing to the needy, was the genesis of what today is a comprehensive and integrated system of care that addresses the overall wellness of each client whether they need behavioral health services, counseling services or career services.

We have 12 organizations that serve more than 30,000 individuals and families each year through behavioral health services, counseling services, career services, education, housing, jail diversion/reintegration, telephonic wellness and care management.

We collaborate with clergy, educators, employers, other health and human service agencies, the legal/criminal justice system, other behavioral health providers, insurers, and many other organizations to leverage our collective resources in order to better our communities and the lives of its residents.

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit funded largely by Medicaid, state and federal grants, local government contracts, and generous donations.
