@TheACPRC @paul_mccallion Thank you. @TheACPRC are there any other professionals that you recommend getting in contact with?

[Alyssa Simon @lyssdothis]

G'day all,

Does anyone have any guidelines or resources for commencing an airway clearance service? If so, please hit me up!

Many thanks in advance. @TheACPRC

[Alyssa Simon @lyssdothis]

@TheACPRC - Airway clearance interventions provided (both via direct contact and telecommunications)
- Tips or "things I wish I had known" as a physiotherapist commencing an airway clearance service.

[Alyssa Simon @lyssdothis]

@TheACPRC No worries, thank you. I'm particularly interested in:
- Types of services available (private, public, community)
- Number of physiotherapists and other health professionals within a service
- Referral pathways
- Patient eligibility criteria

Vents are still difficult for me. There’s lots of physics and numbers and my brain just does not naturally work like that.

I’ve been working through vent details lately, and I thought I’d share some basics.

Corrections very welcome—I’m still training my brain in this stuff.
