Blane,
Perhaps what is needed is Medicare coverage of home respiratory
therapists or coverage of respiratory therapists to teach the home
nurses. This type of care is so vital if many of us want to stay out of
nursing homes in the future. Also, mistakes here are often more
significant than if a bandage is wrapped too loosely. These are often
life and death issues that need to be handled competently.
