Background: School-based telehealth (SBTH) plays a valuable role in child asthma management, although nurses have concerns with caregiver engagement. Mobile technology (m-health) has potential to improve this engagement. Objective: We identified barriers and key desired features of an asthma m-health application as a supplement to an existing SBTH asthma program in rural settings. Methods: Multimethod design using school nurse surveys and interviews with school and SBTH personnel to describe processes related to implementation of an m-health application. Results: Nurses reported SBTH programs were an ideal setting to identify potential families for m-health. Benefits of caregiver education and engagement and barriers related to technology, smart phone data availability, and family buy-in were described. Desired application features included education on inhaler technique, asthma symptom, and medication adherence reports. Conclusions: The feedback identified from nurses can be incorporated into an asthma m-health program within an SBTH program to facilitate implementation.
