VitalCare Respiratory Therapy
Oxygen - We are proud to be providers of oxygen therapy to people throughout Northern Michigan and the Eastern Upper Peninsula. Our team of Respiratory Therapists provides home and office visits to assess the effectiveness of your oxygen therapy. Our trained service technicians home-deliver oxygen concentrators and portable oxygen to people every day. We have a variety of options for oxygen clients:
|
|

- Stationary oxygen concentrators for use in the home. Even patients with portable systems will rely on their concentrators while they sleep. These plug into the wall and can provide for your needs whenever you are at home.
-
Traditional portable oxygen systems with straight flow regulators or conservers, depending on your personal health needs. Portable oxygen travels with you to the grocery store, the casino and your doctor appointments.

- Smaller, portable liquid oxygen units for highly-mobile patients whose medical needs can be met with this type of system. Our Respiratory Therapists will conduct an evaluation to determine whether the systems provides adequate oxygen saturation on an individual basis.
- Portable concentrators that do not involve any tanks. These units have a short utilization span, must be supported by ion lithium batteries, and cannot meet the oxygen saturation needs of many patients. However, for the appropriate patient, this system is extremely portable.

Sleep Apnea Therapy - VitalCare collaborates with sleep diagnostic clinics in Northern Michigan and the Eastern Upper Peninsula to provide you with safe and effective Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) therapy.
|
Our Respiratory Therapists will do a fitting session with new clients to determine the most appropriate equipment for you, and to provide support as you learn how to use this critical therapy.
The results of Sleep Apnea Therapy are astounding. Many patients state that their CPAP machine has changed their lives by allowing them to achieve sound REM sleep at night. They are energized, they lose weight, and their health indicators improve dramatically.
Sleep Apnea patients receive maintenance support in the form of CPAP Clinics held on a rotating monthly schedule at each VitalCare HME store. The schedule is:
| |
First Wednesday of each month: VitalCare Gaylord HME
Second Wednesday of each month: VitalCare Petoskey HME
Third Wednesday of each month: VitalCare Cheboygan HME
