Bronx Community Health Network (BCHN) is a not-for-profit organization and Federally Funded Health Center that sponsors 21 community and school-based health centers in the Bronx.
BCHN health centers offer high-quality medical care and related health services for free or at low cost for the entire family, at all stages of life.
Breathe Free Bronx is a home-based asthma program for patients to help improve asthma symptoms and reduce hospitalizations and visits to the emergency room due to asthma complications. This community health worker-led initiative focuses on meeting patients where they are, at the health center, and at home to educate the family on asthma self-management.
"By expanding Breathe Free Bronx to Williamsbridge, BCHN provided our practice with a wonderful opportunity to improve the care of our patients with asthma," enthuses Dr. Fabienne M L. Daguilh
Millions of people around the world live with diabetes or know someone living with diabetes. While diabetes is not yet a curable disease, it is a very treatable one, and no matter how frightening, annoying, and frustrating it can be, people with diabetes can live long, healthy, and happy lives. Comprehensive Family Care Center (CFCC) recently put a spotlight on the disease with a Diabetes Day event, spearheaded by Montefiore's Joanie Bennett, CCNM.
