Gaylord Specialty Healthcare's Pulmonary Program uses the Vapotherm High Flow oxygen delivery system which helps our ventilator dependent patients, who have a trach or are on a ventilator, recover more quickly. Gaylord has significantly decreased its vent weaning days and our decannulation rate has increased dramatically. This helps patients have a choice on where they go after discharge from Gaylord. The Vapotherm system has helped us to reduce our infection rate and helps patients to be more comfortable while on a ventilator.
