Abstract: In this article, we analyze qualitative data from a purposeful sample of limited English proficiency (LEP) asthma health caregivers.

“…Difficulties in communication could be from many barriers [23], including doctor-patient relationship, discouragement of collaboration, resistance by patients, literacy [24], and language barrier [25].
