Welcome to another intensivecareathome.com YouTube live. My loved one has been in ICU for over a year. Is Intensive Care at Home still possible?

Hello everyone, and welcome. Good morning, good afternoon, good evening, wherever you are. Welcome to another Intensive Care at Home YouTube live. I’m so glad you’re here today, because the topic we’re covering is one that I’ve wanted to do for a long time. And let me know where you’re joining from, whether you are in Australia, in New Zealand, in Canada, in the US, in the UK, in India, anywhere around the world. Let me know where you are. I want to connect with all of you.

Now, I was meant to do the same topic last week at the same time, but something urgent came up last week that I had to attend to urgently, which is why this show never went ahead. So that’s why we’re doing it right now. I also want to welcome our viewers on replay. Thank you for joining me on replay. For those of you who couldn’t make it live, I really appreciate it.

My name is Patrik Hutzel. I’m your host of the show. We’ll be going for roughly around 45 minutes. I am the founder and managing director of intensivecareathome.com.

My background is critical care nursing. I have worked in critical care nursing and intensive care nursing for over 25 years in three different countries, where I worked as a nurse manager for over five years in intensive care, and I started Intensive Care at Home in 2012 here in Australia. That’s how long we’ve been operating for now. I brought the concept to Australia in 2012 after I had hands-on experience in the early 2000s in Germany with Intensive Care at Home, where I was part of successfully setting up Intensive Care at Home in Germany with Brambring Jaschke in Munich. Big shout out to Jörg and Kristoff, who were pioneers at the time, and I was lucky enough to be able to join them.

Now, I knew there was a gap in the market for Intensive Care at Home when I first came to Australia in 2005, because I could just see what was happening in Germany in particular when it came to the Intensive Care at Home space, and nobody here in Australia could see what I could see: that there was a big gap in the market.

So with Intensive Care at Home, we are currently providing tailor-made solutions for long-term ventilated adults and children at home with tracheostomies with 24-hour critical care registered nurses and ICU nurses. We provide tailor-made solutions for long-term ventilated adults and children on BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure), CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) without tracheostomy, with 24-hour intensive care nurses at home. We provide tailor-made solutions for tracheostomy adults and children without ventilation with 24/7 critical care registered nurses. We provide home ventilation and home tracheostomy weaning whenever medically appropriate. We provide home cough assist management, home TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition), home IV (intravenous) fluids, home IV antibiotics, IV potassium, IV magnesium and other electrolyte infusions, central line, PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter) line, Hickman’s line and port management at home. We provide IDC (Indwelling Catheter), SPC (Suprapubic Catheter), nasogastric tube, nasojejunostomy tube, PEG (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy) and PEJ (Percutaneous Endoscopic Jejunostomy) tube management at home, as well as palliative care management at home. We’re also providing Level 2 and Level 3 NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) support coordination, as well as TAC (Transport Accident Commission) and WorkSafe case management.

As of 2026, as far as I’m aware, we are the only third-party accredited Intensive Care at Home nursing service in Australia. We are ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 9001:2015 accredited, as well as NDIS registered.

So without further ado, let’s look at today’s topic: My loved one has been in ICU for over a year. Is Intensive Care at Home still possible? And I’ll tell you straight away, the answer in most cases is yes. Stay with me for the next roughly 45 minutes, and I’ll show you exactly how.

And before we go any further, if you’re watching this right now because your loved one is in ICU and you need help today, do not wait until the end of this call. Call us right now at intensivecareathome.com. Call us on one of the numbers on the top of our website, or book a call with me by clicking the schedule appointment button, or simply send me an email to [email protected]. Like I said, with Intensive Care at Home, right now we’re operating all around Australia, in all states and territories, in all capital cities, as well as in all regional and remote areas.

And while you’re here, download our free checklist, the ICU Long-Stay Family Checklist: 10 Questions to Ask Before Month Six. We’ll publish that in the show notes as this video is being published on our website as well. Download it now and use it in your next meeting with the ICU team.

Now, I also know some of you watching this are in the US, in Canada, in the UK, in India, anywhere around the world. We want to hear from you as well. We can help you in those countries too, so reach out to us.

So why do families end up in ICU for over a year? How does this even happen? How does someone end up in ICU for 12 months, 14 months, 18 months? In my experience, it almost always comes down to three things.

First, failed ventilation weaning. The patient was expected to wean off the ventilator within weeks. It didn’t happen, for whatever reason. Weeks became months. Nobody had a plan for what comes next.

Second, rejected by every conventional option. Rehab said no. Nursing home said no. Subacute ward said no. The hospital ward said no. The patient stays in ICU by default, not because it’s the right place, but because every alternative had closed its door.

Third, family exhaustion. By six months, many families have stopped fighting. They’ve come to accept the ICU as their loved one’s new home. They’ve heard “too complex” or “too unstable” so many times, they’ve stopped questioning it.

And I want to challenge every one of those assumptions today, because I have personally helped patients go home after 14 months in ICU. Me and my team have done it after 18 months. And I’m going to show you how.

So what does “too unstable” really mean? “Your loved one is too unstable to be discharged.” And I want to be very clear about what this phrase really means and what it sometimes doesn’t mean.

There are situations where it is genuinely accurate: active vasopressor support, active inotrope support, vasodilators, uncontrolled seizures, active sepsis, recent surgical complications. If your loved one is in one of those acute phases, ICU is the right place, hands down, and we would never advocate for a discharge.

Here’s what I see constantly: patients who are clinically stable. Their ventilator settings haven’t changed in months. Blood results are at a chronic baseline, not in an acute phase. They are ventilator and tracheostomy dependent, which requires specialist nursing, but they’re not acutely unstable.

For these patients, “too unstable” really means, “We don’t have a model that works outside this building for a patient with these needs.” That is an infrastructure problem, not a clinical ceiling or a clinical problem.

Because at Intensive Care at Home, we have built this very model. We have the CCRNs (Critical Care Registered Nurses), we have the equipment, the clinical governance, the backup systems, the third-party accreditation, the intellectual property that we have built from scratch. We manage exactly this complexity at home, and we manage it extremely well.

So what happens to long-stay patients without an exit plan? I need to share some hard truths, because families deserve to hear the evidence.

ICU-acquired weakness. The longer in ICU, the more muscle mass is lost. A patient who might have weaned at 3 months finds it exponentially harder to wean at 12 months.

Hospital-acquired infections: VAP (Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia), MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus), resistant organisms, C. diff (Clostridioides difficile), you name it. The longer your loved one is in hospital, the higher those risks. I have seen patients whose condition has actually deteriorated during a long ICU stay because of hospital-acquired infections.

Psychological institutionalization. After months in ICU, patients develop a dependency on the institution itself and the routine itself. Getting home reverses this. Institutional care prolongs it.

It’s not right for the family. Research shows dramatically elevated rates of depression, anxiety and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) in family members of long-stay ICU patients. The ICU waiting room is not a sustainable environment. The ICU cubicle, the ICU bedside, is not a sustainable environment. Getting your loved one home is not just better for them. It is essential for you.

Getting your loved one home is not just better for you and for your family member. It’s also essential for the ICU to keep their operations running smoothly and efficiently, because ICU beds are in very high demand, and ICU beds are extremely expensive. We’re talking about $5,000 to $10,000 per bed day.

Our evidence-based Mechanical Home Ventilation Guidelines, which you can find on our website at intensivecareathome.com, show that with the right 24/7 CCRN staffing model, home ventilation, with or without tracheostomy, is safe, effective and measurably better for quality of life than prolonged ICU and institutional care. Hands down, no matter what anybody says.

The evidence-based mechanical home ventilation guidelines on our website also show that with the right 24/7 CCRN staffing model, tracheostomy care without ventilation is safe, effective and measurably better for quality of life than, again, prolonged institutional care.

Next, let’s look at some case studies. Case study number one is 14 months in ICU. These are accurate cases, anonymized of course. A ventilated adult, complex neurological condition, 14 months in a metropolitan ICU. Three weaning attempts, all failed. The family was told “placement options are being explored,” which meant a nursing home, or ongoing ICU, or potentially going home with a, quote unquote, disability support worker model, which is doomed to fail. People have died. I’ll come to more of that in a minute.

Well, the good news is the family, and even the ICU, contacted us. We reviewed the clinical history, spoke with the ICU team, and did our own assessment. Clinically stable on current ventilation settings, no acute instability, just no model with adequate nursing to discharge them.

I remember sitting in a meeting with the ICU where a registered nurse that had just finished their new graduate program, and was involved to potentially look at a delegated model of care, was asking the ICU, “Can’t you just teach me in a crash course how to look after a ventilator and a tracheostomy?” And of course, the ICU was just shaking their head in disbelief. They knew very well that a delegated model of care would not work. The patient would have died, like so many others have, but I’ll come to that in more detail a bit later.

We coordinated a direct ICU-to-home discharge, 24/7 one-to-one CCRN from day one. Within 6 weeks at home, the chest infection rate dropped dramatically. The family saw their loved one smile for the first time since he was admitted to hospital. The patient remains at home today, stable, living, not just surviving, with a decent quality of life.

Next case study: 18 months, three failed discharge attempts. This one is harder. A young patient with a spinal condition and vent dependency. 18 months in ICU. Three discharge attempts. Rehab declined. Nursing home sent back after two critical incidents. General community nursing called an ambulance on the first night, unable to manage a ventilator alarm.

By the time this family found us, they had given up hope. They had been told home was not a realistic option. The hospital was discussing indefinite ICU admission as the only plan.

Our assessment found that every discharge failure had the same root cause: the wrong staffing model. Not an unstable patient, but a system that kept deploying staff not qualified for a ventilated patient, whether that’s disability support workers, general registered nurses without ICU experience, or enrolled nurses. Simply the wrong people for the wrong job.

Intensive Care at Home obviously provided 24/7 critical care registered nurse coverage from day one. That patient has not been readmitted to ICU ever since. That’s actually quite some time ago. But we have more than one case study where we quite literally put a stop to ICU admissions as soon as we walked in the door, because that’s what we do. That is our area of expertise.

We were told home would never be possible. Intensive Care at Home made it possible. That is the Intensive Care at Home difference.

So it’s really interesting that many families, when they realize that things are not working for them, whether that’s with ongoing ICU stays, ongoing hospital stays, or if they’re at home and they’re going back to ICU all the time, they’ve been told by hospitals, they’ve been told by case managers, they’ve been told by NDIS support coordinators, that that’s just their lot in life. They just have to accept it. There’s no solution. Because we are operating in such a tight niche, it’s very difficult for people to understand that niche unless they live and breathe it.

So let’s now look at the three biggest barriers.

Barrier number one is hospital resistance. After 12 months, the ICU team may have stopped actively pursuing hospital discharge or ICU discharge. They’ve tried the conventional options, they didn’t work, and discharge planning has stalled. So what to do? Request a formal discharge planning meeting. Ask directly: has Intensive Care at Home been formally explored as an option? If no, contact us. We will speak with the ICU team and hospital team directly. We do this on a regular basis.

Barrier number two, NDIS or other funding body complexity. Many long-stay ICU patients are not yet on the NDIS, or have an inadequate NDIS plan. This feels overwhelming on top of everything else. Well, the good news is, at Intensive Care at Home, we are NDIS registered. Our provider number is 40500298. We hold Level 2 and Level 3 NDIS support coordination registration. We help with NDIS applications, plan reviews, and ART (Administrative Review Tribunal) submissions if need be. For TAC patients, we are an approved provider. For DVA (Department of Veterans’ Affairs) veterans, we are also a DVA nursing provider, number 971-9851X. Contact us. We will identify your pathway.

Barrier number three, family exhaustion. You’re tired. I get it. You’ve been doing this for 12 months or more now. The idea of starting a new process feels impossible. But you don’t have to do this alone. Make one phone call. That’s it. That’s all. We do the rest: clinical assessments, hospital liaison, funding navigation, team building, discharge coordination. The hardest step is that first call. Every family tells us that.

And why should you choose Intensive Care at Home? Well, here’s why. Because we are the only third-party accredited Intensive Care at Home nursing service in Australia. We are the only one with a track record. We exclusively work with critical care registered nurses, and our service is actually evidence-based. That is what makes us different from any other provider in Australia.

We employ hundreds of years of combined critical care nursing experience in the community, because we have the recruitment, the infrastructure, the credibility, the training systems, the clinical governance and the accreditation to recruit, retain and develop the best CCRNs in Australia and deploy them into the community.

We are the only third-party accredited Intensive Care at Home nursing service in Australia in 2026, as far as I’m aware. We are ISO 9001:2015 accredited for Intensive Care at Home nursing, and we are NDIS registered for Intensive Care at Home nursing. We operate nationally, across all states and territories. We have successfully coordinated multi-state transitions. Our accreditation and NDIS registration apply all around the country. And more importantly, we follow evidence-based mechanical ventilation guidelines representing nearly 25 years of Intensive Care at Home nursing experience out of Germany and Australia. It is world-class.

No general registered nurses without ICU experience. No enrolled nurses. And definitely no disability support workers. No “train the family.” Critical care registered nurses, similar to ICU, 24/7, one-to-one, for every single client.

So here’s what I would do if I was you. Here’s what you should do right now, today.

Step one, download the free checklist, the long-stay ICU checklist, at intensivecareathome.com. Use it in your next ICU meeting.

Step two, call or email me today, not next week. Our numbers are on the top of our website at intensivecareathome.com: 1300 921 536. Or you can call me directly on my mobile phone, 041 094 2230. That is again 041 094 2230. Or book a call with me by clicking on the schedule appointment button on our website at intensivecareathome.com, or you can simply send me an email to [email protected].

Step number three, in your next ICU meeting, ask the right questions, and ask this specific question: has Intensive Care at Home been formally assessed and approached as a discharge option for our loved one? Write it down. Ask it.

Step four, join our email list at intensivecareathome.com for regular updates on home ventilation, NDIS changes, discharge advocacy and clinical education for families in intensive care and with Intensive Care at Home.

So let’s now look at questions and answers. And if you have any questions, please type them into the chat. Even if you’re watching this on replay, I’ll read every single comment and every single question, and then I can answer them in another video.

So question number one: “My mom has been in ICU for 11 months. They say she will need a ventilator permanently. Is home still an option?”

Well, permanent ventilator dependency doesn’t mean permanent ICU. In fact, permanent or long-term ventilator dependency is precisely what Intensive Care at Home exists for. The question is not the permanence. It’s clinical stability. If her ventilator settings are stable and she’s not in an active acute phase, home is very likely possible. Contact us for a clinical assessment. We’ve discharged patients with permanent ventilator dependency who have then lived for years at home with an excellent quality of life.

Next question: “The hospital is talking about palliative care because they say there are no options left. Is that true?”

Palliative care is an absolutely valid and dignified choice, and we fully support families in that decision if it’s genuinely your choice, if it’s genuinely the right choice for you and your family. But it should be a genuine choice only, not a default because the hospital or the ICU has run out of conventional options, or they need the ICU bed. If palliative care is being suggested because the system cannot find a discharge model, that is not the same as a clinical prognosis that makes home care impossible. Please contact us before that decision is finalized. We want families to have the full picture.

Next question: “We’ve been waiting 6 months for our NDIS plan to be approved. Can Intensive Care at Home help?”

Absolutely. We hold Level 2 and Level 3 NDIS support coordination registration. We can assist with NDIS applications and escalations, and where plans are delayed or inadequate, we can support plan reviews and ART submissions. If your NDIS application is stalling while your loved one is still in ICU, contact us right now at intensivecareathome.com. Every additional week, every additional day in ICU has real clinical costs, and it has real psychological, emotional and family implications.

Next question: “How do we know Intensive Care at Home is safe for a very medically complex loved one?”

That is exactly the right question. We are the only third-party accredited Intensive Care at Home nursing service in Australia in 2026, ISO 9001:2015 accredited as well as NDIS registered. Our clinical governance includes clinical operations manager oversight, state-based clinical service managers, regular nurse competency assessments, and incident management systems, verified by BSI (British Standards Institution) Group and the NDIS Commission. We follow evidence-based mechanical ventilation guidelines. Safety is not something we claim. It’s something we prove through independent auditing. And like I said, we have built Intensive Care at Home, the policies and procedures, from scratch. We figured it out. That’s why we are the only third-party accredited Intensive Care at Home nursing service in Australia.

Next: “My loved one is in ICU in a regional area. Can Intensive Care at Home still help?”

Like I said, we operate all around Australia, in all states and territories, including all regional and remote areas. Regional cases can have additional logistical complexity, but we assess each case individually, and we are always upfront about what’s possible and what resources we would need to serve a regional or remote area. Simply contact us. Do not assume regional means impossible. Not at all. We do a number of regional areas.

Next: “My loved one’s ICU team seems reluctant to engage with Intensive Care at Home. What do we do?”

This can be common. Some ICU teams are unfamiliar with Intensive Care at Home as a model, or have had poor experiences with inadequately staffed home nursing providers in the past. The most effective approach is to ask the team to receive our clinical documentation directly: accreditation certificate, evidence-based mechanical home ventilation guidelines, and clinical governance framework. We’re happy to liaise directly with the respiratory physician or ICU consultant. Sometimes a conversation between clinicians moves faster than a family advocacy conversation. We also have our own private intensive care specialists on our books, and we obviously have the infrastructure to make all of that happen. We have the infrastructure, the network, the reputation, etc.

Next question: “My husband has been in ICU for 8 months, but they say another 4 months minimum. Should I start planning now?”

Absolutely. Start now. NDIS applications, TAC or DVA funding requests, private health fund requests, Department of Health funding requests, hospital funding requests, clinical assessments, equipment ordering, nursing team building: all of this takes time. Families who contact us 3 or 4 months before discharge have a dramatically smoother experience than families who call us the week before. Start the conversation today.

All right, that’s time for today. It’s actually much quicker than I thought, everything we went through. Thank you so much for joining the live, and thank you to everyone watching the replay.

Your loved one has been in ICU for a long time. You’ve been told it might never change. You may have started to believe that. I’m here to tell you: do not give up. Intensive Care at Home exists for exactly these types of situations. We have brought people home after 14 and 18 months in ICU. We have done it, and we can help you too. Make the call.

Call us at intensivecareathome.com. Call us on one of the numbers on the top of our website, or book a call with me by clicking the schedule appointment button, or simply send me an email to [email protected].

I’m Patrik Hutzel from intensivecareathome.com. Thank you so much for watching. Stay safe, stay informed, and never give up on your loved one. See you in the next one.

With all of that said, with Intensive Care at Home, we are currently sending our critical care nurses into the home 24 hours a day. Therefore, we are providing a genuine alternative to long-term stay in intensive care for:

• Ventilation
• Tracheostomy
• Home BiPAP (Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure) and CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure)
• Tracheostomy care without ventilation
• home TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition)
• Home IV potassium
• Home IV magnesium
• Home IV antibiotics
• Home IV fluids

We’re providing:

• Cough assist management at home
• Ventilation weaning management at home
• central line, PICC (Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter) line, Hickman’s line as well as port management at home
• nasogastric tube, nasojejunostomy tube, PEG (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy), PEJ (Percutaneous Endoscopic Jejunostomy) tube management at home
• IDC (Indwelling Catheter) and SPC (Suprapubic Catheter) management at home
• Palliative care services at home

We’re also sending our critical care nurses into the home for emergency department bypass services. We have done so successfully as part of the Western Sydney Local Health District’s In Touch program, saving approximately $2,000 per patient that we keep at home instead of them going into an emergency department.

That also means we’re in a position to cut the cost of an ICU bed by around 50%. An intensive care bed costs between $5,000 to $10,000 per bed day depending on location. Intensive Care at Home costs approximately 50% of that, and we’re freeing up the most sought-after bed in the hospital, which is the ICU bed. Most importantly, we’re improving the quality of life for patients and their families, which is a win-win situation for all stakeholders.

Our Coverage and Accreditation

With Intensive Care at Home, we’re currently operating all around Australia, in all major capital cities, as well as in all regional and rural areas. We are an NDIS approved service provider all around Australia, TAC (Transport Accident Commission) and WorkSafe in Victoria as well as the Department of Veterans Affairs all around Australia.

We’re also ISO 9001:2015 accredited. Our clients and we as a service provider have also received funding through public hospitals, private health funds as well as departments of health.

We are the only service provider in Australia that has achieved third-party accreditation for Intensive Care at Home nursing in 2025. We have been achieving this high level of accreditation since 2012. No other provider in Australia has achieved the Intensive Care at Home level of accreditation in the community and has created more intellectual property when it comes to Intensive Care at Home nursing than we have.

This puts us in a position to employ hundreds of years of critical care nursing experience combined in the community. No other service provider in 2025 employs a higher skill level in the community than we do. And that enables us to look after the highest acuity adults and children in the community in Australia safely.

If You Need Help

If you’re at home already and you’re watching this or you’re stuck in an ICU and you realize that you don’t have the right level of support, I can give you many examples where we helped clients with funding, how we advocate for funding. We had to advocate successfully for funding from our first case study to many other case studies where we had to advocate successfully for funding with the right evidence of course because it is crystal clear that disability support workers for example or registered nurses without ICU experience cannot look after ventilated clients at home whether adults or children with or without a tracheostomy and it’s simply dangerous and negligent.

There are plenty of examples where clients with support worker models or even RN (registered nurse) models without ICU experience have died at home and I have evidence to back up everything that I’m saying here because it’s a bit like flying the airplane with a cabin crew instead of the pilot and it could simply be deadly.

This can be avoided by having simply 24-hour critical care nurses at home because our clients are at high risk of medical emergencies or worse without critical care nurses 24 hours. This is actually also evidence-based in the community and is documented in our evidence-based Mechanical Home Ventilation Guidelines on our website at intensivecareathome.com.

Think about it: in an intensive care unit in a hospital, you wouldn’t have support workers or general registered nurses looking after a critical care patient on a ventilator with a tracheostomy. So why would anyone in their right mind do that in a home care environment where there are fewer resources?

Clients that have found us have been at home long-term predictably and permanently with critical care nurses. Their alternative would have been to either die or stay in ICU long-term, and our clients don’t go back to ICU. They stay at home permanently and predictably and the insurance bodies save half of the cost of an ICU. But it’s a win-win situation all around.

We can do the same for you if you’re stuck in ICU or if you’re not safe at home, which includes the advocacy for funding and the network that goes along with it. We have always successfully advocated for our clients or we have the network to successfully advocate for you and for your family member, otherwise we wouldn’t be in business. The same again is applicable for those stuck in an ICU which is similar to many of our, if not most of our cases.

Our Support Coordination Services

This is also why we are providing Level 2 and Level 3 NDIS support coordination. We have a team of experienced NDIS support coordinators, and they have a wealth of knowledge. We’re also providing TAC case management and WorkSafe case management in Victoria with Lucy McCotter.

If you’re an NDIS support coordinator or a case manager or a social worker from another organization or a hospital watching this and you’re looking for nursing care for your participants, please reach out to us as well. If you’re looking for funding for nursing care for your participants and you don’t know how to go about it and how to advocate for it, what evidence to provide, I encourage you to reach out to us as well. We have the network to make that happen. We will help you with the right level of funding and with the right level of advocacy.

We’re also providing NDIS specialist nursing assessments done by critical care nurses with a legal nurse consulting background.

Join Our Team

If you are a critical care nurse and you’re looking for a career change and you want to join a very progressive, dynamic, successful, and high-performing team of critical care nurses in the community, we are employing hundreds of years of critical care nursing experience combined.

If you’re looking for a career change, we’re currently hiring for jobs for critical care nurses in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Albury-Wodonga, Bendigo, Geelong, Warragul, and also in Wyelangta in Victoria.

If you have worked in critical care nursing for a minimum of two years, adult ICU, pediatric ICU, ED and you have already completed a postgraduate critical care nursing qualification, we will be absolutely delighted hearing from you.

I have a disclaimer though: Because we are offering tailor-made solutions for our clients which includes regular staff, our clients do also want the same staff coming over and over again because they are so vulnerable and so special. That’s why we need regular, reliable staff.

If you’re looking for agency work where you can come and go, this will not be the right fit for you. We’re looking for consistency and our clients are looking for consistency. So please only apply with us if you can give us regular and consistent availabilities for shifts and you’re really keen on building relationships with us and with our clients. Reliability is also a must.

For Medical Professionals and Healthcare Executives

If you’re an intensive care specialist or an ED specialist, we also want to hear from you. We’re currently expanding our medical team as well.

We can also help you eliminate your bed blocks in your ICU and in your ED for your long-term patients or for your regularly readmitting patients with our critical care nursing team at home. We’re here to help to take the pressure off your ICU and ED beds. In most cases, you won’t even pay for it. Even if you do pay for it, it is so much more cost-effective than what you’re paying for in ICU and ED settings, and you get the same level of care and simply more patient and family satisfaction because you also want to partner with your consumers.

If you are a hospital executive watching this, we can help you free up your ICU and ED beds.

International Support

If you’re in the U.S. or in the UK and you’re watching this and you need help, we want to hear from you as well. We can help you there privately with one-on-one consulting and with hiring nurses privately.
