1.2.22 Trach Floor 67

Ed’s post

3 months ago, seems like an eternity. We hesitantly brought Aimee into the Emergency Department not knowing exactly what to expect. In three months we have made many changes and we have new goals for Aimee. I’m not quite sure what has been the biggest change but we are getting a good look at what the advantages the Trach brings. Aimee is fighting this cold and doing so well.

Part of the reason we said yes to the Trach was watching how effective the care was. We are able to suction so much deeper, safely and consistently. The cough assist works so well. The fact that we are not dependent on basically one nostril to do the deep suctioning and the bipap is amazing. It’s nice when you can see so clearly that we made the right decision moving on the Trach. We try so hard to make the most informed and best decisions for Aimee.
