During a 12-month period, from July 2022 through June 2023, increases in time on web page and monthly page views aligned with efforts to promote toolkit use. School nurses reported using the toolkit and implementing practice changes pertaining to training and education, ensuring proper use of and access to asthma medications, and advocating for self-carry of asthma medications. Challenges to implementing the standards of asthma care were time, parental engagement, institutional support, and identifying students with asthma. We found that our promotional efforts prompted school nurses to access the toolkit, which helped school nurses to effectuate practice changes to improve support for students with asthma in schools.</p>","PeriodicalId":51273,"journal":{"name":"Preventing Chronic Disease","volume":"21 ","pages":"E63"},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11364280/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142037655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Systematic efforts to identify and fully engage everyone involved with or affected by a program can provide critical information about asthma programs and the broader environment in which they operate. To assist evaluators working at programs funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC's) National Asthma Control Program (NACP), we developed a package of tools that build on the CDC's 1999 Framework for Program Evaluation in Public Health. The resulting suite of evaluation tools guides evaluators through a structured but flexible process, engaging a diverse array of interest holders and actively involving them in evaluation planning and implementation, all while strengthening their capacity to meaningfully contribute to the evaluation process. For our newest tool, our team reviewed the recent evaluation literature to create an enhanced version of the 1999 framework that describes important elements of professional evaluation practice. Although the original framework describes the steps to take in conducting an evaluation and the standards for a high-quality evaluation, our enhanced framework includes an explanation of how evaluators should approach their work: by incorporating critical reflection, interpersonal competence, situational awareness, and cultural responsiveness. In this article, we highlight many of the evaluation resources our team has created since the NACP's inception, culminating in a free e-text called Planting the Seeds of High-Quality Program Evaluation in Public Health.
