Local Partners
In 2019, FJCU’s Department of Respiratory Therapy and FJCU Hospital jointly organized an event on World Asthma Day, May 3rd, to educate members of the community about early prevention of asthma as well as day-to-day health tips and ways to quit smoking. So as to encourage everyone to “breathe freely”, we joined hands with the Taishan Farmer’s Association, Xingfu Community Development Association, and Fuqian Community Development Association to conduct basic pulmonary function tests in these local communities.
