Greater Austin Allergy, Asthma & Immunology

A form in a file is not the same as a face-to-face conversation.
Once the first-week rush settles, ask for a few minutes with your child's teacher and school nurse. Walk through their triggers, their symptoms, and where their medication will be kept. Loop in coaches, bus drivers, or after-school staff too — anyone who spends real time with your kid.

Five allies who know the plan beat one form nobody's read.

This week is Asthma Peak Week — the point in the calendar when childhood asthma hospitalizations climb higher than any other week of the year.

The reasons stack up fast: ragweed pollen is near its highest point, school buildings bring new exposure to mold, dust, and respiratory viruses, and kids are trading germs in ways they haven't since last spring. Layer all of that together, and even well-controlled asthma can suddenly flare.

If your child's rescue inhaler feels like it's working overtime this week, it might be time to check in on their action plan.

Coughing during recess. Wheezing after gym class. Getting winded faster than classmates. These aren't just "kid things" — they could be asthma symptoms worth flagging.

Asthma and food allergies are different conditions, and they need different plans. Different triggers (exercise, cold air, pollen — not food), different medication (a rescue inhaler, not epinephrine), and different response steps. Mixing them up under pressure is exactly what a separate, clearly labeled plan prevents. It matters even more if your child has both conditions — asthma is actually a risk factor for a more severe allergic reaction, so the school needs each plan on file and easy to tell apart.

Two conditions, two plans, one confident kid.

New backpack, new lunchbox, new teacher, new routine — with everything else on the back-to-school checklist, it's easy for your child's allergy plan to fall through the cracks.

Now that school's underway, it's the perfect time to make sure that plan is actually ready for the year ahead - medications current, emergency contacts updated, and the school itself in the loop.
This month, we're walking Austin families through everything it takes to get allergy and asthma prep caught up, not catching up.

Today we pause to remember September 11, 2001 — the lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the resilience that carried a nation through the days that followed.

We honor the memory of those we lost and the courage of everyone who answered the call to help.
