  1. Ventilator Care: A Lifesaving Necessity A ventilator can save a person's life at some point, especially if they have respiratory problems and is considered as an extra support for our body organs like the liver, kidney, heart etc. So, the ventilator helps push oxygen in and out of our body so that our body can receive enough oxygen. Some conditions that may require ventilator care: are acute respiratory distress, looking after and maintaining the ventilator. Yes, since the tubes are put into the trachea, the risk of infection is higher if ignored. India Home Health Care, which provides Elderly Care Services, also provides ventilator care. Below are some of the reasons why ventilator care is important: 1. To improve device performance: Dust, debris, and mucus are some of the hindrances that affect the performance of the device, which leads to other major problems like malfunctioning or inaccurate settings. With proper ventilator care, it is made sure that the right amount of oxygen is delivered as per the patient's needs. 2. Regulatory standards: Regardless of what type of equipment is being used, it is important to make sure that ventilators adhere to the regulatory standards and requirements. India Home Health Care provides Home Care Nursing Services and even provides equipment that meets regulatory standards. 3. Health: Without proper maintenance of the ventilator, there is a high risk of affecting one’s health. Since ventilators provide a regular flow of air to the lungs, it is important to make sure that they are always clear and sterile. This helps in the prevention of mucus formation and infection, which may result in other serious issues. So, ventilator care is not something that is to be taken lightly, because rather than the lifespan of the equipment, it is about the safety and health of the patients who are on the ventilator. Care providers, especially those who focus on Geriatric Care At Home, must make sure that the ventilators are well-maintained.
