Good morning, good evening, good afternoon, wherever you are. Thank you so much for coming to another YouTube live stream for Intensive Care at Home today.

Today’s title is “Is a tracheostomy beneficial for motor neuron disease patients?” Before I dive into today’s topic, I also want to welcome our viewers that watch this on replay.

I also want to quickly talk about what makes me qualified to talk about today’s topic, “Is a tracheostomy beneficial for motor neuron disease patients?” My name is Patrik Hutzel. I am a critical care nurse by background. I have worked in critical care for nearly 25 years in three different countries, and I have worked in intensive care units, but also in the Intensive Care at Home space for decades now. I have a large degree of experience with motor neuron disease ranging back nearly as close as 25 years when I first started out in intensive care as well as with Intensive Care at Home in Germany. But I’ll come to that later.

So, what makes me qualified to talk about today’s topic? Like I said, I am a critical care nurse by background, having worked in critical care for nearly 25 years in three different countries. I worked as a nurse manager in intensive care. I worked with Intensive Care at Home as early as 2001. I am the founder and managing director of intensivecareathome.com where we also provide Intensive Care at Home services for motor neuron disease patients at home. So, I have first-hand experience looking after these patients, including looking after motor neuron disease patients with ventilation and tracheostomy as early as 2001 in Germany. But again, I will talk more about that in a minute.

With Intensive Care at Home currently, we are operating all around Australia. We’re operating in all major capital cities as well as in regional and rural areas. We are an NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) approved nursing service. We are a TAC (Transport Accident Commission) approved service in Victoria, WorkSafe in Victoria, iCare in New South Wales, NIISQ (National Injury Insurance Scheme in Queensland), as well as the DVA all around Australia. We have also received funding through public hospitals, private health insurances, as well as departments of health.

I’m also the founder of intensivecarehotline.com, a consulting and advocacy service for families in intensive care. You can find out more information at intensivecarehotline.com.

With Intensive Care at Home, we are also providing Level 2 and Level 3 Specialist Support Coordination, NDIS support coordination, but we’re also providing case management for TAC, WorkSafe clients, as well as iCare and NIISQ case management.
