The Milwaukee Fire Department is making sure all of their EMTs know what to do when it comes to identifying and treating asthma patients.
According to the fire department, 24% of the calls they receive are for difficulty breathing. Today's training helps EMTs assess a home where someone is struggling to breathe and even prevent asthma attacks from happening.
