Welcome


This site is intended for the benefit of pateints, families and health professionals involved in the care of adults who need chronic ventilation, either prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) or long-term mechanical ventilation (LTV).

By sharing information, this website aims to help such persons to move out of the acute care hospital setting into an environment more suited to long-term community care or care at home.
