Hello and welcome to another Intensive Care at Home livestream here on YouTube, also broadcasting to LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter on our accounts. Thank you so much for joining.

And today’s topic will be another question from one of our readers. And the question today is, “My husband is in intensive care with pneumonia. They asked me to donate his organs. Can he go home instead?” These are obviously questions we are getting from readers all the time. So everything that I’m talking about here, either in my YouTube live streams or in my quick tip videos or anything that we’re publishing, it’s all real world stuff. It’s questions, case studies we get from readers or clients. Everything that we’re talking about here is real world stuff and it’s what clients are telling us.

So before I go into today’s topic, just a couple of housekeeping issues. If you have any questions, please type them into the chat pad. Any questions or comments, please type them into the chat pad. I will answer them. I will also go through some other questions that came in during the week a bit later. If we have time, I’ll give the option for you to call in and you can dial in live on the show and you can answer your question on a call, depends how much time we’ve got. We’ll probably be going for up to an hour.

Before we go into today’s topic, I also want to welcome our viewers that watch this video on replay that didn’t make it to the livestream here. So welcome to our replay viewers as well. I would also welcome if you share this video with your friends and families, if you subscribe to my YouTube channel for regular updates for families in intensive care and Intensive Care at Home. Click the like button, click the notification bell and leave plenty of comments as well.

Now, before we go into today’s topic, what makes me qualified to talk about today’s topic in case you’re wondering. Again, my name is Patrik Hutzel. I am a critical care nurse by background. I have worked in critical care for over 20 years in three different countries. I have also worked as a nurse unit manager in intensive care for over five years. I am the founder and managing director of Intensive Care at Home where we are providing intensive care nursing at home for long-term intensive care patients, predominantly for clients with long-term ventilation tracheostomy, but we also provide tracheostomy care at home for non-ventilated clients.

We are providing home care for BIPAP (bilevel positive airway pressure), CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) ventilation ventilated clients. We are providing home TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition), home infusions, home antibiotics. Quite a number of our clients are also having seizure management at home. In essence, we are replicating an intensive care beds in the community and we’re keeping intensive care beds empty that can be used for more critically unwell patients. We have been operating since 2012 in Australia. We are currently serving all major capital cities including regional and rural areas. We are NDIS (National Disability Insurance Scheme) accredited, TAC (Transport Accident Commission) in Victoria, iCare in New South Wales, DVA (Department of Veteran Affairs) approved service provider, as well as we have worked and are working with some hospitals directly.
