While respiratory illness is on the rise among all Americans, research shows it disproportionately affects vulnerable and disadvantaged populations. Since Americans typically spend 90% of their time indoors, good indoor air quality is a critical part of asthma and allergy management. But not everyone has equal or equitable access to healthy air. Some studies show up to 80% of health outcomes are determined by environment and people\u2019s behaviors in that environment.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iair.academy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Indoor Air Innovation and Research Academy<\/a>, part of is teaching design thinking principles, journey mapping and patient-centered design to improve lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that our environments impact our health,\u201d said Dr. John McKeon, CEO of Allergy Standards Limited. \u201cA person tasked with procurement is not a surgeon, a nurse, or a meditation coach, but when they choose what flooring or air conditioning unit to use, they have a big role in designing, constructing, operating and maintaining our built environments, which in turn has a big impact on our health outcomes. The impacts of their decisions reverberate down the entire chain. If we think about a B2B or employment setting, for example, the way we ventilate, clean, and maintain a safe work environment goes beyond facilities management. It\u2019s also relevant for HR management.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<div>Find more information on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asthmaandallergyfriendly.com\/USA\/products_categories\/flooring\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Certified  <strong>Asthma &#038; Allergy Friendly\u00ae<\/strong> \u00a0flooring here<\/a><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>About Floor Trends Magazine<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Floor Trends, a monthly magazine, and Talkfloor, a daily enewsletter, are the definitive resources for flooring news and information on trends, inspirations, best practices in flooring and flooring installation for industry professionals.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>About Tanja Kern<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Tanja Kern became group editorial director of <em>Floor Trends<\/em> and <em>Floor Covering Installer<\/em> in 2016.
