The Only Ventilator Unit Between St. Petersburg and Naples

For patients on a ventilator, difficulties with speech and swallowing are generally of central concern. At the heart of our treatment protocol is the belief that a patient’s condition should improve, not just be maintained. Being able to communicate restores a sense of independence. Improving the ability to swallow makes getting adequate nourishment easier. Those are the outcomes our nurses, occupational, physical, speech and respiratory therapists work in concert with your doctor to achieve.

As the only ventilator unit in the area, team is also uniquely qualified to care for patients recovering from a tracheotomy procedure.
