Respiratory Care Where Children Need It
Our team of pediatric nursing professionals provides at-home respiratory care services to ensure the best quality of life for children and their families.
How We Deliver Exceptional Respiratory Care
Care Options for Kids is distinguished from other providers in the industry by employing full-time respiratory therapists who are dedicated to providing educational and clinical support to nursing staff and families.
Nurses are trained on various ventilators utilized in the home care setting. On occasion, a respiratory therapist will be involved in the discharge planning process and is present on discharge day to ensure the transition from a facility into the home.
Therapists are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our nurses are trained by respiratory therapists in various areas of respiratory care, including but not limited to the following:
Apnea Monitoring
Apnea monitoring tracks patient heart rates and breathing. Our team reviews monitor data and helps parents and families understand their child’s apnea monitor device.
Ventilator Management
Our team is experienced in cleaning and managing ventilator equipment like CPAPs, BiPAPs, or high-flow nasal cannulas.
Airway Management and Tracheostomy Care
A tracheostomy is an incision in the windpipe to bypass or overcome obstructed breathing. Our team provides cleaning and maintenance for patient safety and comfort.
Pulse Oximetry
Pulse oximetry is a non-invasive method for measuring the oxygen levels or oxygen saturation of the blood. Our team uses this technique to help monitor children’s respiratory capabilities.
Suctioning
Airway suctioning is a routine procedure in children who require assisted breathing. Our team helps keep the airway clear of obstruction to support oxygen flow.
O2 Administration
We provide at-home O2 administration to ensure your child gets adequate oxygen, utilizing various methods of oxygen delivery to cater to your child's unique health needs.
Aerosol Therapy
Our nurses and respiratory therapists help children breathe easier with aerosol therapy, which delivers medication directly into the airway and lungs using mist through a mask or mouthpiece.
Emergency Preparedness
Dealing with an emergency involving your child can be frightening. Our pediatric specialists help families prepare for respiratory issues that may arise and are available 24/7 to provide comfort, reassurance, and care.
