Over the years we have worked not only with the changes in technology, but also with the changes in reimbursement methods affecting the delivery of health care. As a result of this experience, we are able to creatively design programs and patient care models that are timely and consistently state of the art.
Our therapists treat each patient individually. We possess the clinical skills and the motivation to help our patients meet their goals, no matter what they are, even if they seem to be unrealistic at first glance. Our staff takes pride in the success of our work and thrives on the positive outcomes they make possible. We not only work one on one with individual patients, but provide help to those in need across the world thru our website www.ventweaning.com.
