multiple ventilators in case one breaks or isn’t working etc

Different size ET tubes etc

Multiple oxygen tanks

Ample supply of gloves and aprons

Space around the patients bed for the equipment.

Monitors

# data[].attributes.body
Establishing a suitable treatment plan when they are inpatient which can be delivered at home too. Ensuring if they need equipment or prescriptions etc this has been sorted before discharge or you have the correct contacts to arrange this

# data[].attributes.body
Take a more functional approach to improving lung volumes and airway clearance. Think about mobilisation and positioning.

# data[].attributes.body
Home environment, patient's own stairs, possibly outdoor space (garden if they have one).

# data[].attributes.body
Ventilators, MI-E (unless funded), suction (unless funded). Ambulatory oxygen (unless prescribed). No NIV unless funded for home.

More functional treatments as appropriate to the patient/their own experiences/life at home

I imagine there are several things you can get in Inpatients but not Community - however the gap is closing with evidence suggesting community can reduce admissions

# data[].attributes.body
Be creative with available equipment before escalation to hospital

# data[].attributes.body
The patients themselves won't have anything other than treatment/equipment prescribed to them. Physios might bring portable or emergency equipment with them, but unsure what.

# data[].attributes.body
You’re able to adapt your treatment to fit their home and lifestyle. You can tailor your treatment techniques to include things your patient enjoys doing to increase motivation

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of equipment is very bulky and heavy. Even if you were able to use it on a patient in the community it would be hard to transport and use by yourself or with one other person

# data[].attributes.body
Using their equipment at home e.g. using pillows vs electronic hospital bed for management strategies. Non-adaptive equipment.

# data[].attributes.body
More space to mobilise - practice real life situations e.g. ADLs - more tailoured to their home environment

# data[].attributes.body
Make sure aware of clear protocols and procedures for patient condition

# data[].attributes.body
Would need to order an acapella as an airway clearance device - through GP

Inpatient can give patients these.

# data[].attributes.body
May have portable suction unit - chances are low.

May have MIE machine but funding difficult for some conditions
