Respiratory Care
Respiratory therapy uses walking, upper extremity exercises,
and biofeedback to teach relaxation and better breathing
techniques. Our certified respiratory therapists test and treat
patients of all ages, including those who have chronic lung
problems such as asthma, bronchitis, emphysema, lung cancer,
and cystic fibrosis. We also treat patients with injuries from
burns and accidents, and those with heart disease.
Our treatments include oxygen therapy, cardiac resuscitation,
humidity, and mechanical ventilation. We also give instruction
on using respiratory equipment such as home ventilators,
inhalers, and nebulizers.
