Hi, t’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecareathome.com where we provide tailor-made solutions for long-term ventilated adults and children with tracheostomies and where we also provide tailor-made solutions for hospitals and intensive care units whilst providing quality services for long-term ventilated adults and children and medically complex patients at home in include including home TPN, home IV potassium infusions, home BIPAP (bilevel positive airway pressure), home CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure), as well as 24-hour nursing care for patients or clients with the tracheostomy, adults and children.
More specifically, with a tracheostomy that are not ventilated, we also provide IV antibiotics at home, palliative care services, as well as port management, central line management, PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter) line management, and Hickman’s line management.
Now, in today’s blog, I want to briefly talk about an inquiry that we’re currently having. So, we are having an inquiry at the moment from a family in Melbourne, in Australia. Without going into too much detail, they have a family member who was in intensive care long-term for a neurological condition, now having a ventilator and a tracheostomy, and went home with support. But at that moment, they’ve only been home for a week.
Now, they’re realizing it’s not going to work, of course. How can someone go home from intensive care with the ventilator and a tracheostomy with support workers, with disability support workers? That is negligent on all ends. If support workers can all of a sudden look after ventilators and tracheostomy, why are there no support workers working in intensive care, providing care to people on life support?
So obviously, the family is now realizing that there are other options like Intensive Care at Home. So, they have heard about us, which is great, of course.
Just, if you are in a similar situation, the missing link here and we’ve established this pretty quickly, the missing link here is not having the right NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) support coordinator, because the right NDIS support coordinator knows that for clients with ventilation and tracheostomy.
The NDIS will fund 24-hour nursing care with the right evidence. The right evidence is often the doctors’ letter for 24-hour nursing care with specialist nursing assessment which we can provide here at Intensive Care at Home and also a functional assessment, capacity assessment from an occupational therapist as well as a physiotherapist. So, that’s usually some of the most important ingredients to get the NDIS to fund 24-hour nursing care with specialist nurses, intensive care nurses because you’re not looking after a ventilator and a tracheostomy, it’s not even the skill of a general registered nurse that hasn’t worked in intensive care for a minimum of two years.
When you look at the Intensive Care at Home, we are exclusively working with intensive care/critical care nurses with a minimum of two years critical care nursing experience. More than 50% of our nurses have postgraduate critical care qualification similar to most ICUs. We employ hundreds of years of intensive care nursing experience in the community.
Also, we are the only service in Australia that’s third-party accreditation for Intensive Care at Home nursing. Furthermore, we are the only service in Australia that provides evidence-based care.
