Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecareathome.com, where we provide tailor-made solutions for long-term ventilated adults and children with tracheostomies. And where we also provide tailor-made solutions for hospitals and intensive care units whilst providing quality services for long-term ventilated patients and medically complex patients at home including Home TPN, Home BIPAP (bilevel positive airway pressure), Home CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure), but also for patients who are not ventilated and have a tracheostomy only.

So, in today’s video, I want to actually answer a question from one of our readers and also potential clients who asked us whether we provide home care nursing services for TAC (Transport Accident Commission) clients in Victoria.

A short answer to that is this, it’s a YES. Background of the question is that a lady has contacted us who has a husband in ICU after a motor vehicle accident and he’s now on a ventilator in intensive care. And he’s struggling to come off the ventilator and she’s asking whether he should have a tracheostomy. And if he has a tracheostomy, if he then can go home with Intensive Care at Home funded by the TAC.

Now, we are not in control yet in Intensive Care at Home on what the TAC is and isn’t funding. However, the short answer to your question is absolutely yes. We do take patients on from intensive care with a ventilator or a tracheostomy, whether it’s invasive ventilation with a tracheostomy or whether it’s noninvasive ventilation such as BiPAP/ CPAP ventilation with a mask.

Now, in this situation, we have looked at the situation of the lady and the gentleman probably doesn’t need a tracheostomy, which is great. Hopefully he’ll come off the ventilator and then go on to rehabilitation and go home. However, we are currently looking after TAC clients who are ventilated with a tracheostomy at home. We have also looked after TAC clients over the years who didn’t have a tracheostomy but needed BiPAP/ CPAP ventilation after motor vehicle accidents.

We also looked after TAC client that weren’t ventilated but had a tracheostomy 24 hours a day. So we’ve really covered a whole range for TAC clients again, for those of you who may wonder what does TAC stand for. TAC stands for the Transport and Accident Commission in Victoria.

So I hope that answers your question.

If God forbid you are in a motor vehicle accident in Victoria and you need TAC support and you need nursing care at home from the TAC and you have that prescribed, you should contact us for nursing care at home with Intensive Care at Home. Or if your loved one is stuck in ICU after an MVA (motor vehicle accident) long term because they can’t come off the ventilator or they need a tracheostomy, please contact us. We can help you at home as well.

So I hope that answers the question because we get the question quite frequently.

If you have a loved one stuck in intensive care, long-term, especially if they’re ventilated with a tracheostomy, or if they’re not ventilated, but they have a tracheostomy or if they don’t have a tracheostomy, but are long-term ventilated BiPAP/ CPAP, we can absolutely help.
