About this trial
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of targeted nursing interventions in reducing asthma symptom severity and improving physical capacity among older adults during periods of heightened environmental stress caused by climate change (e.g., heat waves, poor air quality). By equipping seniors with practical self-management strategies and personalized support, the study seeks to enhance resilience against climate-related health risks and promote overall well-being.

Nurse-Led Climate-Responsive Asthma Management Program
BehavioralA structured behavioral intervention delivered by trained nurses, focusing on climate-adapted asthma self-management for older adults. The program includes personalized coaching on symptom monitoring, environmental risk response, inhaler technique, and safe physical activity planning during climate stress events. Intervention is delivered weekly over 12 weeks through a combination of phone and in-person sessions, supported by tools such as symptom diaries, air quality alerts, and peak flow meters.
