How to Bring Your Loved One Home from ICU with a Trache and Ventilator (Even If Insurance Says No)

How to Bring Your Loved One Home from ICU with a Tracheostomy and Ventilator (Even If Insurance Says No)

Is your loved one stuck in ICU on a ventilator and tracheostomy — and you’ve been told they can’t come home because insurance won’t pay for 24-hour nursing care? You’re not alone — and there is a solution.

In this video, Patrik Hutzel from Intensive Care at Home
explains exactly how families can bring their loved ones home safely from ICU with a tracheostomy and ventilator, even when hospitals or insurance companies say “no.”

Discover:
✅ What a “step down unit” really means — and why it’s often not enough care for ventilated patients
✅ How ventilator weaning can be done safely at home
✅ Why ICU patients often do better at home with 24/7 critical care nurses
✅ How to advocate for insurance or funding approval for home intensive care
✅ How Intensive Care at Home helps families secure funding through NDIS, TAC, iCare, DVA, and other organizations
✅ Real-life success stories of patients who left ICU and never went back
