Carers play a huge role in looking after all patients- especially those on HMV with simple morbidities. Without their support, sacrifice and dedication it is not possible to provide the high quality care that our patients deserve.
Do you need support with a ventilator at home due to lung and other health conditions? We have a special online community group offering you the chance to talk with peers and discuss important issues .
